music swap?

I want some Modest Mouse albums. Which ones are super good?
If anybody has one or two and would like to tape them for me (a CD is nice but I like tapes fine), I'd be happy to paypal them a couple bucks for shipping & all.

Or I will happily tape you something in return. I just got Stevie Wonder's Greatest Hits 2...

Lonesome Crowded West and Building Nothing Out of Something are my favorites. This is a Long Drive..... has Tundra/Desert on it which is one THEE BEST SONGS EVER.

I have no recording capacity, but I hope the suggestions help. You should be able to find some used.

There weren't enough hits to fill up al of the FIRST one! There's a part 2???
I like Stevie Wonder,but only the 60's/70's Stevie Wonder.

The man has a lot of hits. I prefer the 2nd, actually.

Yeah his later stuff is uneven. I had Talking Book for a year and hated it, and then one day it all clicked into place and I couldn't stop listening to it.

I've been a fan of Ugly Cassanova / Isaac Brock for quite a while. I'd recommend the following MM records:

Building Something Out Of Nothing - A collection of older material (pre-Lonesome Crowded Midwest) that stole most listener's hearts. "All Nite Diner" is probably one of the best songs ever.

Lonesome Crowded Midwest - A little rawer and less polished / studio then their newer stuff. This record is great from start to finish and absolutely essential. "Cowboy Dan" is my favorite on this one. Or, maybe "Trailer Trash"? I dunno - they're both good.

Moon And Antarctica - Their major label debut. A lot more psychedelic with plenty of fancy studio production. Despite some indie purists' 'sellout' complaints this record has some great songs. A little darker and more detached then LCMidwest and definitely trippier.

Everywhere And His Nasty Parlor Tricks - This is a newish Ep that I think a lot of people over looked. It's pretty short but has some really beautiful, well written tracks that are almost a hybrid of The Moon and Antarctica and the Lonesome Crowded Midwest. There's also a bizarre instrumental track that reminds me of Vincent Gallo.

I have all these records and access to a cd burner - i'll be more then happy to mail you copies, if you're interested. I'd be more then happy to share. You should get the Ugly Cassanova record, too!
