everyone used to like pavement...not anymore, so its always good to see someone into them! if you ever wanna talk pavement, i'm you man.

i saw them in chicago in like 99 or 00 and thought they were okay, but since then i have listened to this mixed cd religously. like i said though, i don't even know the names of the songs, but my favorite goes......"what about the voice of getty lee, how did it get so high, i wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy, i know him and he does" and the one that i think is called "rangelife".

i always thought that was their best release. good call on the stevie and marvin!

It was their best. I was listening to it this weekend. It sounds sooo good and so emotionally draining. What I think is special about the disc is that there is a bunch of mistakes on the album, and it doesn't matter. The fact that "Where did you sleep last night" is out of Kurt's vocal range....doesn't matter at all. It still sounds great.

Metallica - Master of puppets
Fear Factory - Demanufacture
Machine Head - Burn my eyes
Testament - The new order
Stevie Ray Vaughn - The Sky is crying
Anthrax - Persistence of Time

stevie wonder is good. but i like songs in the key of life the best.

number one all time: Craig's Brother - Lost At Sea
