Topps baseball card sets 1960-1980 by aesthetic design:

1. 1975
2. 1965
3. 1964
4. 1971
5. 1972
6. 1974
7. 1960
8. 1976
9. 1970
10. 1967
11. 1961
12. 1977
13. 1966
14. 1973
15. 1963
16. 1968
17. 1969
18. 1980
19. 1962
20. 1978
21. 1979

^I searched images of ‘75 and ‘79, for an idea of the range of aesthetic variance we’re taking about, and... lol

Well the '75 set came in bold mix-and-match Easter egg colors that jump right out at you. Those colors practically vibrate. Whereas the '79 set is just a total snooze, featureless, with the Topps logo pointlessly taking up space.

‘63 ranks surprisingly high, considering that was the year Topps made the highly controversial (and never-repeated) move of featuring each player’s rear end instead of his face.

Excellent Tori list, Ross

Best Throwing Muses records:

(not including Purgatory/Paradise, because I've never heard it)

1. Throwing Muses (1986)
2. Limbo (1996)
3. The Fat Skier (1987)
4. Chains Changed (1988)
5. House Tornado (1988)
6. University (1995)
7. The Real Ramona (1991)
8. Hunkpapa (1989)
9. Throwing Muses (2003)
10. Live in Providence (1992)
11. Red Heaven [Live] (1992)
12. The Curse [Live] (1992)

Red Heaven is easily #2

Limbo is soooo killer

Also, mistake RE: "[Live]" after Red Heaven. That was obviously supposed to be after Live in Providence.

Katherine, I've never really bonded with Red Heaven. The live stuff from that era (Providence and the Curse) is really good, though. 'Pearl' is definitely worth it on its own.

Limbo and University are such layered records. The songs have so many aspects to them. Really just masterfully crafted and executed.

can someone rank all the Pitchfork lists

"Furious" is one of my favorite album openers, just tremendous in every way

Katherine, have you ever heard the song 'Catch a Falling Star'? I'm not sure they ever recorded it properly, but have always assumed it was an outtake from the Red Heaven sessions, as they play it on the Live in Providence album. It's kind of classic Kristin in a way; but that rendition does also feel a lot like a demo. It's a "lost song" of sorts, but really great all the same.

Best Comsat Angels records:

1. Sleep No More (1981)
2. Fiction (1982)
3. Waiting for a Miracle (1980)
4. Chasing Shadows (1986)

7. My Mind's Eye (1992)

My favorite American bands:

1. Velvet Underground
2. Wussy
3. Husker Du
4. Jefferson Airplane
5. Byrds
6. Replacements
7. Creedence Clearwater Revival
8. Yo La Tengo
9. Shoes
10. Ramones

Not based on albums, but what kind of 80-minute mix-CD I could assemble for each band. I've done it for four or five them; I'm going to make it a project to make one for all of them.

It's a relatively conventional list. The only names that would raise any eyebrows would be the Jefferson Airplane and the Shoes, and I guess the high ranking for Wussy.

Why would JA raise eyebrows? They are one of the greatest American bands for sure!

It's just generally been my experience that people don't like them as much as I do (or that they don't know anything beyond the two hits).

Degree of difficulty:

3. Trying to figure out quantum physics
