    Some people had put the other Beck albums on their list, but I think this WAS the best of his work.

    I`m glad someone mentioned Slint;they were awesome!"spiderland" will be later on my list.
    I have a story I heard on the radio about Mogwai`s love of Slint.Mogwai was playing a show with Aerial M,Dave Pajo`s band;Pajo spilled some beer on one of Mogwai guys guitars and one of them said"that`s ok,you were in Slint,you can do whatever you want!"

    Here`s my 16-20:
    Guided By Voices-Alien Lanes
    Cocteau Twins-Heaven or Los Vegas
    Palace Brothers-Palace Brothers(Days in the wake)
    Nick Drake-Pink Moon
    Mazzy Star-She Hangs Brightly
    Here`s my fav classic rock albums-top 5:
    Neil Young-Rust Never Sleeps
    Rolling Stones-Exile on Main Street
    Beatles-White Album
    Jimi Hendrix-Nine to the universe(If you`re all going "wha" this is a pretty amazing album,mostly instrumental,so you get to hear Hendrix`s guitar playing on top;There`s one track with jazz organist Larry Young,the only singing is Jimi singing one verse-"I am what I am thank God,some people don`t understand help them God"Amen to that)
    The Who-Live at Leeds(I heard Mike Watt talking about this in an interview,it`s one of his favs.)
    My fav jazz/blues albums are coming soon.

    Hey John,

    Psychocandy by JAMC is quite the disc…loud..disruptive and oh so cool. Listen to it frequently [img]images/smiles/converted/biggrin.gif[/img] Actually have tried using it as a behavioral management plan for a neighbor…person under the stairs kinda deal. Swear at me thru the floor and you will get a blast of Psychocandy…so far pretty effective.

    Cool choices Javro!,Drop 19`s Deleware!-I thought no one else even heard of them!That Truman`s Water album is cool,don`t have it but I heard `the aroma of Gina Arnold`on the radio before;wicked tune!BT`s Big Red Letter Day is my 2nd fav BT album,I think that album gets overlooked.

    I was going through my old vinyl and stumbled across Delaware the other day. I hadn’t listnened to it for years. There are still some really good tracks on there, and when I was young I remember liking the girl on the cover. Looking at her know I feel like a sickoperv.
    Trumans Water always crack me up. If I ever have to drive any of my dancemusiconlylistening friends anywhere, I’ll stick on the spasm smash album. Rations is the craziest song I have ever heard (with the exception of Beefheart’s Dachau Blues). Don’t know what happened to them, they must have rocked themselves out.
    Take is easy salamiguy.

    Once shared a 5 mile double decker busride with Glen from Trumans Water after a Drive by Jehu gig in Manchester…now there’s a claim to fame (he was going out with a friend of mine at the time).

    crazy…those lo-fi anecdotes.
