I find it hard to say this as I am much more a fan of Richie than Jon but I'd go with Blaze Of Glory. Stranger is possibly more consistent (Can't stand River Of Love though) but Blaze Of Glory, Santa Fe, Never Say Die and Justice In The Barrell all outclass any song on Stranger In This Town except maybe Father Time so just for the number of all out classic songs I'd go with Blaze. Strange really as at one time SITT was my favourite album of all time. Both excellent albums!
If we talk about second solo albums though Undiscovered Soul pisses all over Destination Anywhere which is possibly the worst thing Jon has ever released including TLFR.
