I have a funny story with the band Ride. Great shoegaze band from the 90's. I first got into them in the early 00's because someone had dumped a bunch of their CDs in a trashcan outside a record store in Asheville, NC. I always wondered what the story was there.

What's your local delicacy? You find this stew in most BBQ joints around the Southeast. I have been craving it.

The year I turned 16 had AT LEAST two perfect albums. Off the top of my head:
That year sounds like these two LPs to me.

Took a day or two but they replaced the light in our streetlights and I'm pleased to announce that it did not in fact reveal that we were surrounded by these MFs like I'd anticipated. Consider the saga of the creepy streetlight burn out closed.
