nah, other than a couple of Drake songs i wasn't rly impressed by anything that Young Money put out in the last 2-3 of years..

not sure I have a favorite, but...

Kid606 and Friends: We Are All Stars Vol 1 is excellent. It's a remix album,though.

Kill Sound Before Sound Kills You is up there. Just a solid "song based" album. Tha'ts a lot like Down With The Scene, only I think I like it more.

GQ On The EQ is a good collection of singles/errata.

Pretty Girls Make Raves is fun as hell. I like htis one a lot even if it is just pretty straight "dance" music.

OH! Actually, Action Packed Mentalist Brings You The Fucking Jams might be my favorite, though it's all weirdo remixes he did of random shiz like mashing Radiohead and Boyz II Men over noise or speeding up D12 and DMX and mixing it with "Walk Like An Egyption." Tons of great stuff on there. Yeah. That's my favorite.

...but still, there's tons of great stuff in his discography, and most is different from the rest. PS I Love You is really pretty.

Sonic Youth - 1998-07-01 - Jam with Spiritualized

Sonic Youth - Live at Festival Do Sudoeste - 1998-08-08 - a really nice version of Karen Koltrane

Sonic Youth - 1999-02-01 - Blonde Redhead

This album is so great! If you haven't heard it, check it out.

I downloaded Kill Sound ages ago, I really enjoyed some of the tracks on that album. I like him too much to download anymore of his stuff, got to buy more!

GQ On The EQ++, had that one too but just recently deleted the weak mp3 I had it in, and realized I need to own it. As for Action Packed Mentalist Brings You The Fucking Jams, the premise seems out there but I'm sure Kid606 can and did pull it off.

Never heard any Pretty Girls Make Graves or Resilience, those should be interesting listens.

Bardo Pond - Yellow Turban

a while ago i was listening to Songs & More Songs by Tom Lehrer.
