one year passes...

Just found dark night of the soul. Just the regular edition, which doesn’t have the nice photo book by Lynch but a condensed inlay instead. Great record

Anyone want to suggest a Top 10/CD-R?

I have a kind of fixed idea of the Sparklehorse/Linkous tracks that mean something to me ... and wonder if I'm missing anything?

In the realm of b-sides/non album stuff, I always thought his covers of “Galveston” and “Dark As A Dungeon” were up there with his best album tracks.

i was kind of casually putting together an artist playlist because i've had sparklehorse fever for the last few weeks. i will probably do more like a top 20 or 30 because jfc i love so many of his songs, i've realized.

has anyone watched the recent doc This Is Sparklehorse?

https://vimeo.com/ondemand/thisissparklehorse

reluctant to spend six bucks to watch it on vimeo until i hear a positive endorsement or two.

i haven't, but i would also like a review. from the trailers, it seems to be a kind of cookie cutter interview with people who knew him talking about how he was a genius kind of doc, which is not my favorite kind of thing to watch. but i'd watch it anyway, i suppose, if it's about sparklehorse

This album is very good but doesn’t Every Star supercharger sound exactly like Lights Are Changing by Mary Lou Lord?

I just discovered that was a Bevis Frond cover (lights are changing)
