Rank every band/project/solo work

So do we rank these individual bands / artists / projects out of 10 based on their entire output?

As for other projects, I would include the likes of Citizen Band, The Swingers, Phil Judd, Schnell Fenster, The Makers, Enzso, ALT, Neil & Liam Finn,  etc. Unless this is specifically about the Finn Brothers, in which case some of those might not count.

Feel free to add any others. I was doing it fron favourite to least favourite based on their output.

Hmmm... this is quite difficult to rank one off projects against a body of work but I’ll give it a whirl... This is just based on my personal preference. I guess the way I have thought about it is who/what I would most like to see (while in their prime) or be most excited to see a new album from as opposed to rating against their full recorded output.

1 Split Enz v1 

2 Split Enz v2

3 Crowded House v1

4  ALT

5 Finn Family*

6 Finn Brothers

7 Neil Finn and Paul Kelly

8 7 Worlds Collide

9 Crowded House v2

10 ENZSO

11 Neil and Liam

12 Tim solo

13 Neil solo

14 Pajama Club

* The Finn Family entity was based on a single gig - ‘Another F’INN Xmas’. It included both Tim and Neil’s families (and some friends). Elliot (Tim’s daughter) brought the house down when she sang Respect. This was a really special gig.

Not ranked: The Mullanes (given I never got to see them live and there wasn’t enough quality recordings for me to judge).

While Pajama Club come in last, I love the album (and rate it above some of Neil and Tim’s solo efforts) but when push comes to shove, I would choose a Tim or Neil solo gig ahead of a PC gig.

Also Neil and Liam is not solely based on the Light Sleeper output and tour but the gigs they did together a few years prior to the album.

I also considered Fleetwood Mac, but will need to wait a couple of weeks until I’ve experienced a gig with Neil in it first hand...
