I recently got a new vinyl copy of the National Health debut. Checking on PA I learned that both the debut and the second are rated 4.11 with 54 ratings... seems to be a good reason for a poll!

TO me their second one, Of Queues and Cures, but aswell the first is a good album to have.

Agreed!

QUEUES has wind instruments on it, and some delightful "crooning", but the debut is graced by Alan Gowan's masterly minimoog!

The debut just about has the edge for me - both are excellent albums, but the first one feels somehow more coherent and fully realised.

Their S/T is one of my favorite albums, and I've never been able to find they're second album. So no vote

Both are splendid but Queues is worth queueing for !
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

A tie is probably the best answer.
