 yikes!

my fave is subliminal sandwich.  might be hard to find really cheap, since
it's a two disc release, but it's worth it.  weird contrast- supercompressed
sound sprawling across two discs.  covers a lot of bases, but quite well.  and
take mr. danger's advice from the inside of the sleeve- play it two or three
times when you're not really paying attention, *then* sit down and give it a
really close listen.  strangely, i did this quite by accident before i read
the liner notes- i just threw the discs into the changer and they played a few
times before i really listened.  

subliminal indeed.

nothing puts out good stuff!)
