Very good list my friend, most notably your number one since it's mine as well well. I like everything on your list but the bolded ones are especially stellar. Also good to see another Cecil fan! My favourite of his is Nefertiti, the Beautiful One Has Come, which is really worth your time if you'ven't given it a go yet.
