It was inevitable that this thread would start, so don't even complain.

My vote goes to CRCR both for the original album, and for the reissue.

CRCR - S&L L&R had almost all songs that were widely available on bootlegs. CRCR has the real juicy stuff!

I can't WAIT for Wowee Zowee Deluxe...

S&E: L&D

If all re-issues were that good, there would be no more war, poverty or human suffering. We'd all be united under our love for Peel Sessions and embossed casing.

Take the Trigger Cut b-sides, the Watery Domestic EP, and Greenlander and you have my favorite Pavement collection of all time.

oh oh and "Secret Knowledge of Backroads" and "Circa 1762" and the live versions of "Perfect Depth" and "Home". Heh.

i already had all the stuff on the S&E reissue, so im going to side with CR CR.

as for the proper albums, it's a dead heat - one edging the other out depending on my mood. As for the reissues, I gotta go with S&E:L&R. Sure, most of this stuff has been floating around in one form or another. But you really can't fuck with those two Peel Sessions, Watery Domestic/ + sessions and "Baptist Blacktick" (probably my favorite cut from Westing...) all in one handsome package.

seven years pass...

Can anyone show me a band that do the kinda-stoney Jam Kids/Haunt You Down thing? Like a band that makes a whole career out of that

Royal Trux?

― nicky lo-fi, Thursday, 5 April 2012 19:30 (fourteen years ago)

yes, I like Royal Trux. Any more?

― og (admrl), Sunday, 8 April 2012 00:46 (fourteen years ago)

what about the Brian Jonestown Massacre?

― nicky lo-fi, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 19:26 (fourteen years ago)

early Sebadoh?

― Iago Galdston, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 19:40 (fourteen years ago)

noisier weirdo stuff like Shadow Ring and Dead C? not as pretty/groovy/spacious though.
