A long time Liquid Swords was my absolute favorite album, but the album hasn't aged that well for me. I don't consider it even my favorite wu solo anymore. With Ironman it's other way around, didn't like it at first, but now it's probably my favorite wu solo. I also got a soft spot for Tical.
Anyway:
1. Ironman
2. OB4CL
3. Tical
4. Liquid Swords
5. Supreme Clientele
6. Return To...

6. Return

Don't know why, always liked SC more than Ironman. I really like both albums but SC just over Ironman.

Back in 94 it had to be left foot but nowadays I check for the right foot more often. Its more consistent.

if you're right handed then its right boob allday though.

thread is basically a variety of lists and as pointless as the best producer thread.
