C or D : Yo La Tengo

finally got the vinyl. brain capers ends with a lock groove and there's a secret bonus instrumental track on side 4 (though it's kind of annoying)

great acoustic set last night at a benefit. 2 highlights from James, Sun Ra's Nuclear War and Black Flag's Nervous Breakdown.

I put together this little YLT deep cuts mix ... a good listen, I think!

pretty good!

pretty good pitch too! Ira must have loved that.

(lol xpost)

Matador has tweeted video of Ira's honorary first pitch too.

I need to dig into Tyler's deep cuts mix soon

I just played it, very worthwhile. But not downloadable (didn't they used to be?).

it's just one big mp3 file but if you right click / save as you should be able to download it.

aw yeah "Nutricia" is one of my very faves

that's a song I could just play on a loop forever I think

xp
OK, I got it, thanks. My PC said "save link as" and I thought that would just copy the link, not the file linked to.

been on a big ylt kick, i'm familiar with the core four (painful -> and then nothing) but little outside of it. and then nothing is one of my favorite records of all time so it's been wonderful to discover that they made a few more slow motion nighttime insomniac records just like it (summer sun and there's a riot going on) and i adore them as well!!!

don't sleep on the new one either, fantastic stuff

i'm gonna listen to it today!!! :)

fade and i am not afraid of you... are both very good too

but this stupid world is a top 3 ylt album

hard agree

Their sea creature documentary soundtrack is great too

yes!
