speaking of the SY bandcamp, there are several live shows on there - anyone got a recommendation for a standout among them?

If you could re-sequence/revise the track list for one Sonic Youth album, what would it be and how would you change it?
I’m going with Washing Machine, an album that’s near to perfect but slightly half-hearted about its desire to be psychedelic.
Here’s what I’d do:- cut “Junkie’s Promise”- cut “Panty Lies”- merge “Becuz” and “Becuz Coda” into a single song- would I cut “Skip Tracer”? Maybe- replace the 19:35 version of “Diamond Sea” with the ~25 minute long version from the CD5 - Bliss out

Skip Tracer is the second best track!

I would skip tracer tooI’m more of a Lee fan in concept than in reality

"Skip Tracer" is solid! Lyrics are kind of mean tho, SY don't really have room to be making fun of other bands' lyrics.
the title track is so amazing though, the middle section, particularly when they start playing that harmonics/feedback riff, is the ideal of what I listen to them for.

A super sounding riff one might say

100% cosign, a real highlight of their work

this article was pretty good, imo, but the cbgb bootleg embedded within is outstanding, with some blistering versions of daydream nation tracks: https://pitchfork.com/thepitch/sonic-youth-and-the-business-of-keeping-a-dead-band-alive/

This was just posted by Roxy Cinema in NYC but not widely announced - they're screening The Velvet Suite with a Q&A afterwards with Lee Ranaldo and filmmaker Ignacio Julia moderated by Thurston Moore:
