I only really enjoy Summerteeth, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, and A Ghost is Born. They are fine records. I used to rank them as a favorite but not so much anymore.

I think my distain for them is the fact that I was told by everyone I know that I should listen to them because they thought I'd love them. Kind of like that South Park episode with Cartman and Family Guy. Yankee Foxtrot Hotel is the only record I could stand, and even than Jesus, etc. is the only track I could put up with. Jeff Tweedy's voice is so unappealing. F##king Wilco.

I honestly feel the same way about Radiohead. I want to like them, but I can't get past Thom Yorke's voice.

Agreed. Tom Waits is easily one of, or my overall, favourite artist. The Heart of a Saturday Night, Foreign Affairs and Raindogs are probably my top 3 albums.

Can
Sun Ra
Shrimp boat
Miles Davis
Moondog
Supersilent
Chopin
Bedhead
