Some great choices there! You've got some of my faves: Candy's Room, Roulette, Tougher Than The Rest (they would definitely be on my compilation)...Really difficult to narrow it down to 3 cds...Think I would include So Young & In Love, Rendezvous, Incident.. 10th Avenue Freeze Out and Mary Queen Of Arkansas (I think there's only me who actually likes that track so wouldn't expect to see it on anyone else's list..:-))
Great list!

Thanks!

Yeah, it's really hard to narrow down about 300 songs to less than 60. I like all your choices too - with the exception of "Mary Queen Of Arkansas". :D "Tenth Avenue" almost made the cut but I felt having even more from Born to Run on the set might be pushing it..

Yeah, then there's She's The One also :-) I think my compilation would end up being about 5 cds long!!
No surprise at your dislike of MQOA.. I am convinced noone else likes this ;-)
