After making his comeback a few weeks ago, Lafayette singer-songwriter Scott Alan Scott has been holding it steady with regular gigs at both Bisbano’s Cellar and the Collage Café. This week, Stagg gives The Independent Weekly his Top 5 albums of all time for out Tuesday Top List. Always outspoken, Scott had a few particulars he needed stating before he could launch into his Top 5. "Ok, here's the deal with the Top 5 thing. Asking a musician, especially a songwriter, to narrow their favorite albums to five is, well, impossible,” says Stagg. “My top give greatest albums are different from my top 5 favorite albums. So I'll try to narrow it down to five.”

Yay Scott. I was learning how to fingerpick when I saw you for the first time years ago when I was barely old enough to go. It meant a ton to me then and it still does years later. So very glad you are back. Your style and sound are out of site and you raise the bar on performing. Rock on completely.

Did I REALLY leave out Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon"? Naw, I couldn't have. How embarrassing.
