OK, that song does kinda suck. But, mostly Yule does OK. I don't sit there listening and get pissed because I have some beef with Doug Yule for breaking up the band or whatever crap. Still sounds good.

And if people can get all hard over Beatles albums with crap like Rocky Raccoon and Bungulo Bill, I get a pass to love Loaded with Lonesome Cowboy Bill.

And let's not pretend that S + E is a nonstop cavalcade of hits.

I think it's an all or nothing prospect for most people, although some like to pick on "Conduit for Sale", I guess.

People like to pick on "Two States," and "Hit the Plane Down" from Crooked Rain, but i've always though both add a necessary moment in the pacing of their respective albums.

I don't think I've heard a single Pavement song. I voted Loaded.

Malkmus is a pussy, Lou Reed is a cunt.

I still can't figure out how Loaded is the one VU album to make it this far...
