I don't think so.

Exhibit A: tracks from MOP have been covered a lot more often, than tracks from AJFA/RTL. (Evidence that musicians prefer MOP).
Exhibit B: Twice as many members from www.mersenneforum.org think MOP is better than RTL.
Exhibit C: Every song on MOP has a distinct flavor and the solos perfectly match/emphasize this flavor, e.g. we have a 'weird' solo for TTTSNB to match the song's 'weirdness', faster solos for the faster tracks, more melodic solos for the more melodic tracks, etc. Metallica made their first baby steps designing RTL in the same way, but on MOP everything was simply p-e-r-f-e-c-t. AJFA not only had the problem with the bad mixing, but the overall quality was regressing to the mean.

My Éire-bias-detector just exploded, but I'll play. I think Ruairí Ó Gallchóbhair sucks big-time compared to e.g. Gearoid Ó More.

I liked Sean O'Sykes' work on 1987 Whitesnake album (and "Riot" from Blue Murder), but that's about it. To be honest, I don't really care a lot for Gary Moore. He was just the first Irish dude who popped into my mind and fit the order - Bono O'U2 and Micheal O'Flatley certainly didn't.

That's because you're old and senile. Lemme guess, you also don't think that "Somewhere in Time" is the best Iron Maiden album, right?

I once worked at a college and overheard a student saying to his friend:

"No. There's Gilbert O'Sullivan and there's Gilbert AND O'Sullivan."

Not to mention Sir Laurence O'Livier, Ozzy O'Sborne and William O'Ccam.

It appears that you're the Irishman the Englishmen talk about in pubs. Congrats, you're famous!
