Self-promotion isn't necessarily my strong suit, but...I have a podcast! It's called Three Albums--the general gist is I do a deep dive every episode on three albums connected by artist, year, theme, or genre, with related detours, of course: https://t.co/X5F24m8pPH

@mystsl Fragile is the only Yes album (until their 80's incarnation) loaded with singles. Other albums are filled with suites and experiments. And I listen to The Fish, South Side of the Sky, and Heart of the Sunrise more than I do Roundabout.

@daehruoyserehw My favorite Sonic Youth "album" ending with my favorite Sonic Youth song ("I Dreamed I Dream").

@lancecheek I might be the only person in the world that likes C &T's "Muskrat Love", but there you go

@EsotericCD I don't love all of their albums, but Rio is a 9/10.

[Gregory Allen Martin @gallenmartin]

@JVMonte2 Saw Slint and Sonic Youth at Pitchfork Festival. Slint did all of Spiderland, and Sonic Youth did Daydream Nation. Awesome concert.

@EsotericCD @NRO I don't think there's really a comparison, Jeff. Yes, she may come across as canned and rehearsed, but it's like saying she can't throw a football more than ten yards when her opponent is trying to eat the football.

[Gregory Allen Martin @gallenmartin]

@ScottKacsmar In the hair metal department, I nominate "Tell Me What You Want" by Zebra.
