Nah, but I should. It’s probably more worthwhile than being in the 10C. I think the thing stopping me is that these don’t come with a digital option. I’ve got a turntable, but I’m too lazy to rip a vinyl. I like having the option of bringing the music to mobile.Simple Torture wrote:Oh, man, I thought your post above meant you were on the mailing list.dad wrote:I think I’m too late to join to receive vol. 3.Simple Torture wrote:The version on the upcoming Cherry Tree release should be right up your alley.

Re: The National
I enjoy the album version, the additional vocalist almost in place of the keys, the build to incorporate strings in the crescendo; I think it is just a fantastic song. Before the drums became the real driver might be my overall preference though:dad wrote:I’ve never seen them perform it in person. I’m guessing you have.

it's a perfect paradigm of the band as a whole (layered and bringing us just to the edge of where it can take off, but then it lands gracefully).
I've also been living with that version for almost ten years, so there's that.

Re: The National
that version of Rylan on Q is very good.
i think this'll be the start of a National kick for me for a bit.

it's rare that I say this, but the remastered version is so much better than the original.dad wrote:looks like Sad Songs remaster is up on spotify.
their production was sorely lacking before Boxer.

Re: The National
I love TWFM so much. It might be my favorite. Boxer is no slouch, but they hit their stride with Trouble. Absolutely solid start to finish.

I've only seen them live when they toured HV. Sad I missed any shows for Trouble.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:I’m not sure I can put it over High Violet, but they’re pretty neck and neckdad wrote:I love TWFM so much. It might be my favorite.

TWFM and Alligator are always swapping for my fav. HV is very good too.
