Surfer Rosa The Pixies
The band that started my love affair with music. rip-roaring and weird.
But also catchy as all get out.
Meet The Supremes
One minute, the girls are all sweet, sweet bubblegum and the next, heartwrenching
balladeers. perfect pop. Worth tracking down on vinyl.
#1 Record/Radio City Big
Star
A friend of mine told me he spent a whole summer listening to nothing
but this album. a week later, i had it in my hot little hands. then proceeded
to spend the next 3 months with the thing glued into my discman.Tthe perfect
soundtrack to balance the paranoia of city living and urban tension. Like
gold for yer ears.
Wild Gift X
Not just because they're from my native L.A. Exene and John
took what they started on Los Angeles, made it more melodic,
less angry, and more sad. some of the best lost love songs ever. if you
aren't familiar with the genius of X, this is a good place to start
Furnace Room Lullabye
Neko Case & Her Boyfriends
Miss Case writes songs about hitting
deer with your car, dead boyfriends, murder, botched love affairs, and
loneliness like she's the first person to ever experience it all. and
somehow manages to write beautifull country-pop songs that sound like
yesterday, but make sense like it was today. and that voice. Watch out
for that tear in
your beer.

Safari The Pastels
Charming. Lo-fi. beautiful. sad girl-boy vocals. A bit of that Velvet
Underground shuffle. Belle and Sebastian stole quite a bit
from the Pastels. Ah well.
Tthere you have it. I love this group!
