My favourite record has always been NYC Ghosts & Flowers.
Imagine seeing Sonic Youth on their NYC Ghosts tour opening for Pearl Jam on their Binaural tour.

I just heard this for the first time a few weeks ago and was surprised at how much I really liked it.
Also, that piece above really makes Thurston Moore sound like an ass.

Yeah, it really does.

It is his life (and hers) and it doesn't affect my enjoyment of his work in the slightest, but it doesn't stop me thinking he's an old fool.

Love it. I think it's better than The Eternal, Rather Ripped, NYC Ghost & Flowers, and A Thousand Leaves.

I only just saw The Year Punk Broke recently for the first time. Really cool tour film. I never actually realized it was a tour film or I would have watched it long ago.

Man, I must've almost worn out my old VHS copy of TYPB. I love all of the Nirvana footage on there, they were such goofballs.

Yeah apparently she's some weirdo who's in an open marriage. Thurston met her through Kim too.
I'm actually downloading his new band's album right now.

I listened to it before the story emerged, I promise.
Though I did defriend him on Facebook; not because he's a cheating horndog, more because his updates were kind of annoying.
