holy fucking shit

this is the best list i have seen here in forever, though i have the reissue of wayward bus/distant plastic trees together so i count them as one record.

regardless, MAJOR props on team dresch, dolly mixture, camera obscura and dj screw man. and you obvs can;t fault lekman and the supremes. really, really great list.

Still love them and will do forever, just growing out of the singer/songwwriters a bit, I guess.

Thanks.

I have the DPT/TWB reissue as well as that's the only one in print now, however it misses off Plant White Roses, which is as good as anything else on the album, including 100k Firelies.
