The Minutemen -- Double Nickel On The Dime

  Holy frig!  What a monumental album, it's got so much cross-genre-foreshadowing it's hard to keep up with where it's all going.  In the midst of 80's American hardcore, it's tough to believe that this bombastic release was able to exist and change the sound of independant music overnight!

Big Star -- Radio City

  Now that I own it, I'm not sure how I feel about it ... I'm torn between, I hate it, it's a beautiful disaster or it's a great album done by a British Invasion band in the 70's, except, they're American!
