And probably a couple by Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, Johnny Rotten, and Courtney Love as well (though I forget which ones, off hand). And oh yeah, almost every Elvis Costello song 1977-1978. And lots of *Here My Dear* by Marvin Gaye and *Wild Gift* by X and *Shoot Out the Lights* by Richard and Linda Thompson and (see assorted threads on "marriage rock.")

i haven't heard anything new by them since the "hello hawk" cd single. (i don't think i heard the parent album attached to that either.) (or maybe even the one before it.)

the guitar break in "Hey Bulldog" is so fucking amazing

i've been looking for a french-language freakbeat version of hey, bulldog forever. i know it exists, bcz i saw/heard it once. anyone have any ideas?

lauren (laurenp), Saturday, 18 September 2004 14:52 (nineteen years ago) link

hello hawk is one of my favorite songs on that superchunk album, which is, incidentally, the only one i own.

Amateurist, can you remember off the top of your head your favorite songs on every album you've ever liked?? If so, I am truly in awe of you. Some people are really good at that; I usually forget what lots of the songs are even *called.* Sometimes I even circle the tracks on my CDs and albums so I will remember, in case I need to know sometime.

The thing is, when I think of the zillion records I HAVE sold and traded over the years, It's hard to remember what the hell they all were. I had a store in Philly once and I sold about a 1000 of my own records there and all I can remember selling are my Crass singles and some Orb albums! If I really thought about it i could remember more probably, but still...

aww, so sad. even my Merry Crassmas single. It's true though. I traded in a couple hundred cds about 6 months ago and I already can't remember what they were. Except the Animal Collective!! I do remember getting rid of that one.

the screaming trees put an ep out on sub pop during the Tad era and they outweight the Tad band by a good quarter ton.

i loved that book, i think the first time i got it out was when i was like 11. before that i thought my brother and i were the only people who pooped.

Everyone Poops was first published in English in 1991, according to this page, it was published in Japan in 1978.

"Submission" is great! Most danceable throb on the album, total proto-PiL/post-Skynyrd ("The Needle and the Spoon," ha!) dirge (better than "You're Crazy" or "Anything Goes" for sure).
I forget what "New York City" even sounds like, though!

Riot Gear! (Gear!), Thursday, 21 October 2004 17:27 (nineteen years ago) link

don't love it, but i think it's not bad -- especially the song about how the dolphins make him cry, and that quotes "idiot wind" or whatever that dylan song about killing a man in italy and inheriting a million bucks was. also the song that sounds like "letter b" off of *sesame street* is okay. i haven't played it in a couple years, so i kinda forget the rest. but he's a pretty good singer, in the dobie gray tradition. (best defense of the band ever, and gutsiest, was by i believe daniel smith - a lead review in *vibe*, i think!! she basically argued that they were a soul band, which kinda makes sense.)


(and yeah, i meant *cracked rearview.* i suppose they might have some earlier indie albums maybe, right? i never heard those. *cracked reareview* has a pretty funny title, too, come to think of it.)
