One more for CRCR, the best high-school summertime album ever.

Matthew Perpetua, I have that Pavement DVD with pre-CRCR footage on it and while I understand it was probably a lot fo fun if you were there at the time and the whole indie rock revolution thing and the Gary Young what a nut etc. etc. But I find that the majority of pre-CRCR stuff either bores me or hurts my ears. I guess the point is that it's really badly produced but the sound quality is so thin and each guitar squall or snare hit just sounds like a pin to my eardrum. I guess that's hyperbole, I like a few of these tracks but none of them as much as later stuff.

With Pavement though it's always the first album you hear that you secretly like the best, even if (as in my case) it's Brighten The Corners which I have a very soft spot for, even if I do say that CRCR is the best.

Pavement's good, but not worth arguing over.

I'll drink to that

"Pavement's good, but not worth arguing over."

"With Pavement though it's always the first album you hear that you secretly like the best"
