Top of the World for me with House of Pain a close #2.
Note: I grew up on cassettes and A Apolitical Blues was not on OU812.I believe Sucker in a 3 Piece was, which was a pretty good closer, right down to the last drop.

SIATP is a much better song than AAB, which is simply dreadful.

I always looked at AAB as just a bonus, I feel the same about Happy Trails.
I didn't critique it like the rest of the album, I did find it interesting.

Top of the World. Though I love Feelin and BG. Top of the World is just a perfect closer for a show, album, etc.

Top Of The World is easily the best album closer from the Sammy era, but better than On Fire or In A Simple Rhyme?

Maybe but we will never know. All I know is the shows I went to up to 1995 where all sold out and screaming fans all the way back to the parking lots.
