Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars HORRIBLE.......2007-04-22

There're possibly two tracks....out of twenty-something...that pass the lame-test........and they're not great anyway.

Don't waste your money...a poor attempt at a tribute to one of the 20th century's most important musical acts.

5 out of 5 stars =good stuff.......2005-08-21

i thought this was a great album...i enjoyed it much...nice to see takes on some great pave songs.

4 out of 5 stars probably not as good as it could have been..........2004-08-03

some bigger names would have been nice: stephen merrit, lou barlow, superchunk, mountain goats, long winters? i dunno. i love silkworm, and i love what tindersticks brought to the table, but some bigger names--and with them, bigger talent--really would have fleshed this out.

of the almost 40 tracks here, some are startling good takes on pavement classics. of course, the problems are more plentiful: there are, inexplicably, three different interpretations of "here"...granted, it is without doubt one their best cuts, but repeating it twice after the initial (and best) rendition means that two other pavement songs got nixed altogether. classics notably missing from the track list are "grounded" (simply inexcusable), "easily fooled," "carrot rope," "debris slide," "baptiss blacktick," "stereo" (another downright shocker), "conduit for sale," "silence kid," "filmore jive," "rattled by the rush," "at&t," "grave architecture" (the horror), "major leagues," and "spit on a stranger." on the other hand, mere featherweight throwaways such as "grangsters & pranksters," "i love perth," "baby, yeah," "dancing with the elders," and "winner of the..." show up. thankfully, there were a few nice surprises: "circa 1762" and "give it a day" among them. generally, the acoustic covers are the best, highlighting as they do the oft-overlooked and uncomplicated beauty of malkmus' songwriting. "here," "give it a day," "shoot the singer," and "and then..." all get premium acoustic treatment (the latter by silkworm). the best track of all may be the techno transformation of "in the mouth a desert," but the positively grandiose "stop breathin'" gives it a run for its money. all in all, a very interesting listen, worth buying for the fans. a little too heavy on the early singles, and little lacking in the wowee zowee department, but it's a project undertaken out of love, and i'm glad to see they pulled off a respectable set of songs.

4 out of 5 stars One of the best covers comps in awhile ..........2003-07-06

There are some very interesting versions of Pavement songs on this comp. Either Pavement is very prolific (which they are) or lots and lots of people wanted to cover them, hence the 2 CD set. It doesn't disappoint. Even if you aren't a Pavement fan there is enough different styles of music on this comp to make it worthwhile. There is country (Silkworm), experimental (Truman's Water), etc.

As a fan of covers and Pavement, I highly recommend this comp. The songs are diverse and interesting. My only complaint is the Solex cover of "Shady Lane". I personally think it is unlistenable, but that's just me. Skip it and listen to the rest.
