Audiophiles and music critics typically place Radiohead/Wilco and The Jayhawks at the top of 90's pop/rock music. All 3 bands only released 3 albums in that decade compared to 5 by Blue Rodeo. OK Computer and Hollywood Town Hall are standouts, where Blue Rodeo has several recordings that could be considered their best.
