that's all i got. hell, we don't even get an autumn in louisiana. only heat.

Yo La Tengo albums seem to have an autumny feel to them.

Your friend must be well fit. The Cornershop fan club now inludes you, Pookie and myself. I remember Pookie saying that he really liked the Lock, Stock & Double-Barrell ep once.

I've just been listening to Sun by Sun (Oren Ambarchi + Chris Townend), and that has a perfect "summer's not quite over yet" cosy warmness to it.

comus

Neil Young - Comes a time (the sad songs on it)

Laura Veirs - Carbon glacier

Six Organs Of Admittance- The Sun Awakens
Tortoise- Millions Now Living Will Never Die
The Hospitals- Ive Visited The Island Of Jocks And Jazz
Laurie Anderson- Big Science
Negativland- Points
The Fall- Perverted By Language

I seriously can't think of even one.

Not even an LP you associate with fall because of a certain time in your life or anything?

not even a rolling stones album that you have listened to in the autumn?

Oh, I'm just pulling your collective leg. Of course there are:

Goats Head Soup (came out in fall 73, I thnk--not my fave Stones, but it reminds me of that fall)
Sticky Fingers
L.A. Woman
Nevermind
EVOL
Daydream Nation
First Ramones LP
My Aim Is True
Several Talking Heads LPs (77 thru Remain in Light especially)
Kind of Blue

I'm sure there are more.

Actually, I think The Modern Lovers is my quintessential autumn album.

The 1969 Live Velvet Underground double LP is a close second.

Bob Mould - Workbook

to rococo rot - the amateur view

Nick Drake (anything)
Dylan from s/t to John Wesley Harding (BOTT works too)
Simon & Garfunkel (anything)
The Smiths (anything)

I have plenty more, but I won't bore any of you further.

Canonball Adderly's Something Else (which I found on vinyl today)

TML is more a summer album for me, but I could see it working in the fall.

Agreed on the VU live album.

Yeah, with VU live, I think it's the intimate feel of the recording. Like you're in a small club nursing a hot toddy with the lights low while the wind blows outside. "Anyone here have to go to school tomorrow? Yeah, I thought so..."

Nursing a hot toddy, huh? Sounds pretty autumn-like to me.
