It does flows really well. 'Push me, pull me' at spot 2 is weird. But MFC is a great starter in the context of this album. I do prefer the original order, but this booklet order is nice aswell

Listening to this right now. About half-way through Do the Evolution. I probably underrate this album.

It's one of their best.

While Yield is still not top tier for me, I'd been listening to it a fair bit this Spring, and I think I'd put it above S/T now.

Just enjoying the hell out of everything that comes on today. This must be what Strat feels like all the time.

"Given to Fly" gets way too much credit. Aside from the very strong singles, "No Way" and "Push Me, Pull Me" do the heaviest lifting here.

For years it sat at #1 in my book. Then Backspacer came, and I grew nostalgic for Ten, and mature enough for Binaural whimsical enough for No Code. Hey it's evolution baby. One day probably close to the seventh inning it will score some runs and take it place back on top.

Does someone at the Pit rip this stuff off of Sirius?

I'm interested in the commentary as well, but it's long overdue for them to release more shows from that tour.

I remember listening to the Monkeywrench Radio broadcasts live back in the day and taping them off the radio. #OldBallz.

That would make a nice cassette in the Super Deluxe Box.
