RE:SCORE: Guided By Voices: The Official Ironmen Rally Song (1996)

TOTAL SCORE: 17, AVG: 4.25

Unlike previous singles, the version of The Official Ironmen Rally Song here is the same as the one on Under the Bushes Under the Stars. Both Deaf Ears and Why Did You Land? have alternate versions on the Suitcase boxsets, though I find the best versions are the ones presented here. June Salutes You! is also a decent track that hints at even far greater potential...

    You can check out my original post here. Here is the updated ranking:

    Among Bob's Best
    01 The Official Ironmen Rally Song

    Gems
    -- none

    Almost Gems
    03 Why Did You Land?
    04 June Salutes You!

    They're Good
    02 Deaf Ears

    They're OK
    -- none

    Could Live Without
    -- none

    Toss-Offs & Throwaways
    -- none

    Given the scoring above, the album would get 17 points total (and an average of 4.25).
