vv tough imo, since there are at least 7 tunes on here i could vote for

omar little, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:22 (seventeen years ago)

The Way I Feel About You--saw the Oblivians do this a few times, too. Great record!

Although Pepper Spray Boogie is pretty great.

strong opener and a stone cold Cartwright classic with "Stop & Think it Over". "Two Thieves" is pretty awesome, too. I'm actually a little indifferent to a lot of Jack's stuff from this era, but his last couple or three records I'd rank right up there with the best stuff Greg's done.

greaaaaaat record.
i might love their live record even more though!

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:29 (seventeen years ago)

i really would love to have this on vinyl but all that awesome SFTRI stuff is oop

omar little, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:40 (seventeen years ago)

and the stuff that isn't is like detroit cobras lps, which just isn't the same

omar little, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:40 (seventeen years ago)

otm.
really bummed i slept on getting crystal gazing on LP :(

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:09 (seventeen years ago)

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:09 (seventeen years ago)

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:19 (seventeen years ago)

not actually sure if she does have a copy of this record on LP.

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:20 (seventeen years ago)

i have the live album on vinyl and that's it. i saw this record all over the place for years, too, and of course i never got it.

omar little, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:21 (seventeen years ago)

you have the reigning sound LPs though right? most of those are still easy to find.

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:25 (seventeen years ago)

i have too much guitar and time bomb high school. don't have the others, but i'm always keeping my eyes peeled.

omar little, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:27 (seventeen years ago)

Live @ Goner is the better of the two live records FWIW.

ian, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:30 (seventeen years ago)

thanks 4 the info~, i'm trying to complete my greg c. discography (easier said than done, true). i was pretty psyched to find that solo album he put out, 'head shop'.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

ILX System, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 23:01 (seventeen years ago)

i still can't decide

omar little, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 23:04 (seventeen years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ILX System, Thursday, 15 May 2008 23:01 (seventeen years ago)

damnit i couldn't decide between 'two thieves' and 'stop & think it over'
did not vote, should have. sorry gear.

ian, Friday, 16 May 2008 01:47 (seventeen years ago)

Only four votes? Shameful. Now I see why Gregg and and Jack aren't household names. It was a tough choice but I went with "The Way I Feel About You". I had not listened to the album in awhile, it's easy to forget how good they were.

steampig67, Friday, 16 May 2008 12:30 (seventeen years ago)

Tennessee Tearjerkers are even better

Wonder if these dudes are bummed about the Jay Reatard / King Khan hype going on right now.

If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be An Airport, Friday, 16 May 2008 13:16 (seventeen years ago)

sorry, ian - i only have the cd!

i think my vote would be for stop & think it over but jeez... it's hard to pick just one.

lauren, Friday, 16 May 2008 14:19 (seventeen years ago)

It would be hard not to.

jack o has done "wait a bit joe" the past 3 or 4 times i've seen him.

chicago kevin, Friday, 16 May 2008 19:53 (seventeen years ago)

Only four votes? Shameful.

i never saw this poll! i would have voted for wait a bit joe though.

chicago kevin, Friday, 16 May 2008 19:54 (seventeen years ago)

If I'd seen it sooner I'm afraid I would have merely jumped on the "Stop and Think It Over" bandwagon. That shit could have been a hit in some weird, preferable alternate universe
