The run from California through San Francisco was remarkable. Such an underappreciated band

Easily my favorite Who album. Might be due, in part, to Who’s Nextfatigue

I am quite fond of Silver Sail and Straight Ahead

Big fan of the band. I have a great 3 CD collection of their early recordings including Is This Real? Sage also has some great solo stuff

In the first few months after I started at the record shop, I was introduced to Meat Puppets II, Double Nickels on the Dime,Zen Arcade, and Let it Be. A pretty great stretch there for American indie bands. On top of that, Reckoning (IIRC) came out around that time

A magical album to me, but for reasons I cannot put a finger on, none of their other albums really charm me much. This one never fails to make me happier

This record just blew my mind when it came out. I fell in love with Meat Puppets II but this one seemed to come from an even weirder planet than the previous one.

@justinsteiner.bsky.social What should I know about Luis now that he has joined my club? I am sad to lose Acuna, but it seemed that they were not committed to finding him much playing time.
