MERCURY REV
Deserter's Songs
2018 U.S. reissue

A perfect album for quiet, chilly Monday afternoon.

An absolute musical masterpiece and one of the finest albums of the #90s .

It’s still the only Mercury Rev album I need. Whenever I hear ANYTHING else by them playing, my immediate thought is “Why isn’t Deserter’s Songs on?”.

When I first bought this on CD in ‘98, it was the first album I had become completely immersed in and obsessed with since Radiohead’s OK COMPUTER, which came out in May of 1997.

For the following 16 months, most everything else I heard came of banal and underwhelming.

Until Deserter’s Songs arrived in September of ‘98.

Just a beautiful, inspirational and timeless sounding record made for a day like I’m having today.

De La Soul, Clear Lake Auditorium, 1994 on Tommy Boy

I love De La Soul, especially the first three albums – 3 Feet High and Rising, De La Soul is Dead, and Buhloone Mindstate. This EP was a promotional only release in 1994, which was widely bootlegged over the years, and includes 4 tracks from Buloone Mindstate plus two non-album tracks, one of which features A Tribe Called Quest.

My copy is the 2025 limited edition reissue & repress on translucent green vinyl, which was issued in a “gel” sleeve that actually contains liquid. I immediately re-sleeved, but of course kept the gel sleeve too.
