Reply to comment by DetectiveLinden in Bands that peaked with their first album? by GroguIsMyBrogu

you’d be very correct.

I think AAEA is one of the best albums ever by any artist, so sadly, it’s only little steps down after that 🙂

it is truly that good. i’m glad that you still appreciate the other records too, however —even if that means placing them a little lower in comparison with AAEA. counting crows are a great band; i think that’s the common perspective here at least.

For sure. I think for many bands, their first is the best, and then a huge drop off. Counting Crows held up there for subsequent albums.
