"There's a reason for everything that's ever been right. Today we look up & can see. Some singular moment comes close to going around again. I hope you will drop the diamond in a groove and let it ride a while." -Lee Renaldo's back cover liner notes

Cool art piece from the "quiet" Sonic Youth guitarist.   This grey marble etched vinyl has a locked groove on EVERY track.  So you get feedback loops, inaudible subliminal spoken word loops, and general aural debauchery that continues until you pick up the needle to go on to the next track.  Merely hearing it lazily doesn't do the work justice.  You need to be INVOLVED, Man!

The giant etching "Sav X" I found no evidence of playability outside of needle abrasion.before the grand finale "The Open End" take us all to eternity.

For active listeners only.

"And when finally the bottom fell out I became withdrawn..." Bob's public precursor to his own divorce has taken a strange turn in the public narrative over the years, whether reflecting domestic tranquility or turbulence.   Beyonc é  might tell you she flips pancakes or boils an egg to Blood On The Tracks on a Sunday morning.  Jakob Dylan might rail that ...

I still have my beat up mono copy passed dow...
