I’ve been away from the US since 1970, and I’m pretty old, and I’m more of a Bach and Handel fan myself — but actually, that’s pretty cool. I really like “Talking about UFOs”! Who’d have thought It?

Nice piece here, but no love for “Celebrated Summer”?!? It was a fixture on just about every mixtape I made for a girl in the 80s and 90s!

My second-favorite album of all-time is Kate Bush’s “Hounds of Love/The Ninth Wave” FWIW. I’ve never heard this Husker Du LP, I confess (have I sinned?), but as an act of contrition, I will listen to it this week and see if I’ve missed out!

You and I are the same age (1966), and it’s clear from your various writing that went to the same shows back in the day. In fact, I was at the (in)famous show when Hüsker Dü broke up (The Blue Note, Columbia, MO, 1987). I loved the band and in particular the albums you’ve highlighted recently, also Candy Apple Grey. I disagree with you about Sonic Youth, but I also didn’t have a zine…. Cheers
