I'm surprised by the choice of Fall record.

I think 'Grotesque' and 'Hex Enduction Hour' come close to perfect but 'PBL' is a hard listen.

Hmmm, 'Smile' is an incredible song.

One of the best.

I sold that for $80 on ebay a few years ago.

That's the only thing the Beasties Boys have ever been good for... making a CD that would eventually go out of print, and buy me something nice.

I've struggled with this on a number of occasions. I have the same Liquid Liquid comp and I know how much money it goes for. I had all the old This Heat stuff before it was reissued and it was fetching a pretty penny as well. Common sense tells me I should sell CDs for that kind of dough but I just can't bring myself to do it.

T. Rex - Electric Warrior (fuck you, "Rip Off")


Man if Smuckles had said "Feeling such a dude" you would have declared it to the high water mark of human history, that song rules.

The only perfect album I can think of is Funhouse, for the most part perfection is vastly overrated.

I'm pretty sure we can assume that he's heard it if he's listing it as one of his perfect albums.

I quite like that record, relaxing poppy stuff, really warm. Lyrics are almost funny in a strange way.

I'm sure he's noticing his kiddie pr0n is taking that much longer to download.
