How 'bout some fucking love for BOB MOULD??

I caught onto Sugar around Copper Blue and started checking out Husker Du and his solo stuff.

I do love Sugar. File Under Easy Listening is still in heavy rotation around my house and a MUST for me on road trips. I think that disc about 15 years old.

File Under Easy Listening and Copper Blue are still my two favorites. I have a special edition of CB with a second CD with "the extended works of Bob Mould" or something like that. Then about two years ago I found File Under... on vinyl, unopened, for $2.99. It was destiny.

and the living end is my favorite live album ever. and eight miles high is in the running for favorite cover. and don't even get me started on celebrated summer, divide and conquer, skintrade, tilted or sacrifice/let there be peace.

transplant also sent me 8 miles high. I had a smile on my face the whole way thru!

HUSKER DU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I am old enough to have seen them live.
I am a huge fan and always say that Warehouse would be my desert island disc and I can't stand answering those desert island questions.
Bob is an amazing talent. :eek:
No band ever came close to Husker Du for me.

copper blue is one of the best sounding records

do you have the Circle of Friends DVD? I very rarely listen to DVD's however I just noticed the tracklist yesterday. I think I have to purchase that.

Drinking sounds good. I am going for Paralyzed. Maybe Where Diamonds Are Halos thrown in for good measure.

Workbook is one of the best albums ever

I do have Circle of Friends. Can't believe you don't have it.

Less than 15 bucks at amazon.com.

Excellent! Will watch for it. :-)

Are you familiar with the Grant Hart Kickstarter documentary? Here's the link:

Hell yeah! I got a chance to see him at Joe's Pub in NYC soon after Circle of Friends was released. Fantastic show! I picked up a copy of the dvd then, but missed out on a chance to meet the man as I had a train I had to catch. Nice to see some love for the guy on here.

Thank you, biranlux, for the info about the Grant Hart documentary.
