The Feelies are amazing. I may have to pick this one up.
I can almost guarantee you will love it. Listening to it completely washed away all my cares. Such an amazing record.
I have heard it. It's amazing. I think I put the "Let's Go" video in the Train's Lounge Car thread in AMT a while back. I have some of it on my phone. I just don't have it on vinyl. But I will shortly. I just ordered the Newbury colored vinyl edition. I had a roommate years ago who was really into them. So, I heard them quite a bit. I just never added much of their stuff to my own collection.

Awesome. In my humble opinion this is their best record. There is no doubt REM was influenced by these guys
Very cool. Quick question for both of you savvy music fans: What about their first (and most widely recognized) album? I tried to sample it on line but it sounded really tinny (on tiny computer speakers) and VERY different from The Good Earth? It almost sounds like a different band. Thoughts?

I think there are about 6 years between the two albums and a couple of band members left. They then played under all kinds of pseudonyms around Jersey/NY I believe (Trypes/Yung Wu/Willies). The new lineup then recorded Good Earth back under the original band name.
The first album is a great album, I like the second one more. I don’t have a vinyl copy of Crazy Rhythms to comment on how it sounds vs. the streaming music (which always sucks imo). Ive been looking at European copies from 1980 on discogs, but haven’t found one with reasonable shipping costs in VG+ or better condition yet.
I would also add the third album from ‘88, Only Life, is an ennjoyable listen. Found the Canadian version of that one for $10 a while back. It was their first major label release.

Great response, thanks!
I ordered Only Life from Bar/None Records last night. Looking forward to it! I'm still on the fence about Crazy Rhythms. What I've sample of it sounds a lot like Talking Heads herky jerky music. That is no put-down on either band- I loved Talking Heads back in the day and seeing them in 1982, that was a phenomenal show, but I'm not so much drawn to that kind of coke fueled architecture these days. But that said, I am curious and open to the idea that I might likeCrazy Rhythms after all.

Nice on vault #3. Not a cheapie.
How did you enjoy the Live Anthology?
That one is on it's way, I've had the CD since it was released and I think it is one of the best live sounding recordings in existence! Yep, V3 was $400 sealed. I made a promise to myself after that one never to pay over market value for PJ stuff again!

Worth it for the album cover colours alone. Great songs - I think I'll give the regular album a spin today!
Love this album a ton, but not as much as my wife. Looking forward to blasting it this weekend!
