racehorse · 01.04.2007, 05:14 PM

dream/aktion unit for me...
NB was half decent as well. there's still a wealth of stuff i've yet to hear though, especially melbourne direct which i never got my hands on

mirror/dash - i can't be bought cd
new blockaders/thurston moore/jim o’rourke - the voloptulist
sy/gustaffson - without kim
text of light - metal box
text of light/mciaa - split LP
thurston - psychic hearts rerelease
thurston - flipped out bride
tlasila - noon and eternity
two dollar guitar - the wear and tear of fear

EDIT - If I included appearances on compilations that list would be at least 50% longer.

hmmm, reading that list i realised i've only bought 2 SY related things this year, SY EP and D/AU, my vote goes to the SY EP for the killer bonus tracks. i ought to buy one of those Lee things really.

I don't want to be king of the board, Kegmama, I enjoy being underneath you far too much.

I thought he has been the king of the board for a long time

My ranking:

1) dream aktion unit
2) tol metal box
3) the destroyed room
4) rather ripped
5) thurston/jim/tnb
6) diskaholics-live in japan

sonicl · 01.05.2007, 06:23 AM

Was my list complete. Moshe? Did I miss anything (apart from the ones that Pokkeherrie mentioned)?

Bal · 01.05.2007, 06:28 AM

nice list.
havent heard half of that. shite.

Moshe · 01.05.2007, 06:31 AM

I think there is only one release missing:
Thurston also took part in Horoscopo: Sanatorio de Moliere by TLASILA.

HairwayToSteven · 01.05.2007, 09:47 AM

I would say Lee's Ambient Loop For Vancouver or The Destroyed Room. So much of that stuff I have yet to hear.

Phlegmscope · 01.06.2007, 10:46 AM

I broke down and bought rather ripped, after all. At least it's the vinyl version of it so the cover art is a bit less appalling than in the cd version. Still, musically it is a bit shite. Definitely a disappointment.

In addition to that, I only bought the double lp reissue of the s/t album, and that indeed is a great one.
My choise is obvious.

As for most of the stuff sonicl listed, you cant really find it in stores here and you'd have to order it somewhere else. I'm not that interested in sonic youth that I'd hunt down every single sy / sy -related thing that is available. it would be a hassle I can't be bothered to take part in.

toxic johnny · 01.06.2007, 11:03 AM

These are mine in no particular order...

sy - helen lundeburg / eyeliner 7"
sy - melbourne direct
diskaholics - weapons of ass destruction
diskaholics - live in japan vol 1
new blockaders/thurston moore/jim o’rourke - the voloptulist

I suppose if push comes to shove then Melbourne Direct is my fave... but only by a knob's length

Alas I don't have DAU or the ToL metal box yet... but they are top of my must buy list so this will be rectified real soon...

I have another to add to sonicl's list...

Thurston Moore/Cotton Museum split 12" Insertion on Tasty Soil Records

It is indeed pretty tasty but not tasty enough to make my top list.

val-holla-ing · 01.06.2007, 11:27 AM

melbourne direct and the ToL metal box were awesome.

PAULYBEE2656 · 01.07.2007, 07:15 AM

tough call

dream aktion unit
melbourne
ep reissue
diskaholics live
diskaholics weapons

krastian · 01.09.2007, 12:47 AM

Rather Ripped
TOL Metal Box
Both Diskaholics
EP
Four Guitars
Destroyed Room
Ambient Loop For Vancouver

I haven't heard Melbourne Direct yet.

!@#$%! · 01.09.2007, 01:02 AM

well it was the ep. especially that inner sleeve. it was funny and pleasurable to read from richard edson that sonic youth were a bunch of squares.

sun city girl · 01.09.2007, 03:27 AM

i can't believe they released so many records... i only have helen lundeberg 7", SY reissue and mirror/dash cd. i might buy the destroyed room at some point too.

a bit offtopic in a way, but the best sonic moment for me in 2006 was seeing lee ranaldo live at avanto festival.
