But Oceania IS part of Teargarden. An album within an album--remember?
I would definitely rank MTAE over Teargarden. At least MTAE sounds polished, fleshed-out--and there's some great stuff on there, imo, i.e., "Drum and fife" and "Dorian." Billy never should have released TG--it's dull, meandering, forgettable. And the 11 $50.00 EPs that stopped after the second one? What was that all about?
