Yup. I was listening at that time and that definitely made me smile.

No, not yet. I'll add it to my Spotify, if they have it. There are so many great things on Flying Nun that it's a bit overwhelming.

Yup. That's the story that piqued my interest in this album. A friend of mind posted it on Facebook. Today's listens:

I bought the pre-release of the YLT record, so I am holding off on listening to it until I get the entire thing into my iTunes. Can't wait!

It's because everything RS states is fact! Hubris.

Can't say anything bad about an album that has this song on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0G3Rihzc8M

My song "Break My Heart" was just played on this fantastic SWEDISH radio show, also broadcast in San Francisco, and now archived as a podcast! And the DJ had some really nice things to say about the song (and about my band, in general) on the air, too! http://icecreammanpowerpop1967.podomatic.com/entry/2015-08-22T02_00_00-07_00

Listening on Spotify. Check it out: http://play.spotify.com/album/1niTZlsM14tECBG5PDAdZc

Nick Lowe. John Cale.

Both of these. Definitely.

You know, I put in the wrong album title, I meant to say Land Speed Record, not Metal Circus. MC still isn't my fave from them, but I don't hate it.

It's been many years since I've put it on. Maybe I should give it another shot then.

Meat Puppets I They're one of my favorite bands of all time and they had a huge impact on my life, but their first album is pretty much unlistenable. Hüsker Dü - Metal Circus Pretty much the same thing. Prince Nearly anything that he released since the year 2000 (with a couple of exceptions). It's like, just because he's a genius, he thinks that we need to hear every drop of piss that comes out of him. I love him, but we don't.

Um… YEAH!

"Tear Stained Eye" is a fucking brilliant song. Just gorgeous. And that entire album is a masterpiece.
