fun article but i wish he'd been a little more personal and idiosyncratic with his selections, obviously Nevermind and Daydream Nation have personal significance for him but i dunno

yeah not terribly surprising stuff in there. liked the anecdote about playing marquee moon in the lecture hall.

Boring list, thought he'd stick a few more interesting albums for the 'guitarist' in there

And Pavement as favourite band of the 90s, jesus

the coda part of 'Fire Island' is lovely, wish it was the whole song

really digging Last Night On Earth, only halfway in and am already pretty sure it's an improvement on Between The Tides.

Nice! His solo records are so underappreciated

Ian, pretty sure that Nathan Bowles is drumming for the Steve Gunn band on this tour, and maybe is opening the shows solo as well? Something like that.

Listened once on Spotify. Some really surprising moments. I'm not sure what I think of the spoken bits but the melodic songs are hitting the spot, for the most part. Ranaldo, Cline, and Licht all playing on a Beatlesque pop record seems like a good idea!
