Even then, I'm not sure if it isn't nostalgia for the feeling of hearing it in the early 1980s as a teen.

Somehow you can rock with me to Porcupine and Heaven Up Here without even all of the acid of the day and not even chuckle at the pretentious aburdity, but when it comes to Let It Be, you don't still think it's brilliant? It's like the half way point between Zen Arcade and the Ramones first album with just enough Gary Glitter to make me want to drink cheap beer all over again. But yeah, I suppose I feel the same way when forced to face some of the NW's most famous disgressions (though I listened to "Sex God Missy" by Tad just the other day and loved every second of it, so maybe not...)
