You can't compare them because some of the albums you mention are very good, but one is a work of genius. How's that for positive discrimination ?
I doubt whether HCTB or HIAH will be much more successful in the future than they have already been. For me they lack the timeless quality of most of Jim's work.
Also, regardless of whether this argument is off topic or not, at least its created interest and generated posts, this site has been deadly the past few weeks ... my opinion.
