Sickening how incredible they are

Paul Westerberg is my favorite song writer. He just hits the sweet spot. Constantly. His missteps included. Guy knows how to pull at the heart strings and make my wheels turn*


*balls swinging

I pity da fool who doesn't appreciate Westerberg.

strat, what would you recommend for someone who is interested in exploring the output of mr. westerberg? the entirety of my experience with him is the Pleased to Meet Me album and the two tracks on the singles soundtrack.

Westerberg Solo:

Stereo/Mono - One of my favorite albums of all time. Double album, first disc is him in a basement with acoustic guitar and shitty recording equipment, second is some catchy goddamn rock n roll
Suicaine Gratification

thanks, chief. i've actually picked up and observed that very stereo/mono album a few times in music shops with high levels of curiosity, but have yet to pull the trigger.
