Awesome. It's the best version. I'm buying that.

If buy the lp vers (which is a thing of beauty) in classic Shellac fashion no dl code but you do get an unmarked cd vers stuck in there
The vers of "Billiard Player Song" on their is all time as well

I have a totally horseshit sounding 45 I think? of the 94 session

I forgot (or more likely didn't know) that the '94 Peel Session predates the release of "At Action Park" by a few months, if Wikipedia is right which has it coming out in Oct of that yr which seems like it could be right

they sure kept Spoke in the barrel a while

Esp cuz they played on the reg until about '98 or so, I sort of assumed they had forgotten abt it until EIG
On the 2004 set "Billiard Player Song">"Dog & Pony Show">"Il Porno Star" is absolute peak Shellac

I'd rank them At Action Park > the singles > Terraform > 1000 Hurts > Dude Incredible > Excellent Italian Greyhound, but I'd put Two Nuns & a Pack Mule above all of them

Terraform >>>>>>>>>>>>>> At Action Park > 1000 Hurts > Dude Incredible > Greyhound.
I'm aware I'm probably alone in this assessment.

oh fuck it someone start a poll already
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Monday, 17 June 2019 20:25 (five years ago) link
Nah that is the correct order
― chr1sb3singer, Monday, 17 June 2019 20:38 (five years ago) link
Oh and I saw someone point out this new set is Shellac #16 but Dude Incredible is Shellac #14...so whatever #15 is maybe that is coming "soon"? I realize in Shellac terms "soon" is 1-5 years.

Yeah, Terraform is my favourite too. I also really like Greyhound, somewhat controversially, but Terraform stands slightly above the rest

^^ I'd swap the singles and Action Park but yeah pretty much

It's never quite gotten better than At Action Park but I'm always willing to hang in there to see what happens.

I heard an interview with Steve recently where he said they're planning on releasing a comp of all the non-album material so I'm guessing it's that.

nice! I had a shitty CDR, now long gone, with a bunch of odds and ends which included a cover of AC/DC's Jailbreak, I'd like to hear that again

After the first two singles and Action Park, Terraform was a big WTF for me. I just kept waiting for something to happen on "Didn't We Deserve..." but it never did. I get a bit more what they were going for now after you hear where they went, but that tune was kinda out of nowhere first time I heard the LP.
That said, the 'package' with the vintage paintings and the lush earth picutre on the interior and the record sleeves is really beautifully done.
The two singles had me hooked for a long time, they are some 7"s that I listened to a bunch. I also got the Drag City one and that Skin Graft double 7".
― earlnash, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 22:08 (five years ago) link
Earlnash - felt exact same about Terraform - but the Chesley Bonestell art was dope. They never topped At Action Park or the singles in my opinion, but certainly have never put out any kind of clunker.
― BlackIronPrison, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 23:49 (five years ago) link
I got to say that Dave Foley doomsday bunker rock-DJ sketch from the new Kids series has got some serious "The End of Radio" vibe.
I have to wonder if him or the writer knows the tune.
