5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2005-12-25

The Mezzanines self-titled record was created in the same vain as Guided By Voices "Alien Lanes", it was completely recorded on a 4 track tape recorder in a basement(GBV used and 8 track)in illinois(GBV are located in Ohio) by mainly one person. The sound quality is not that bad at all, if you actually listen to rock n' roll and realize that the best records ever made had arguably poor sound quality (audiophiles like to call it warmth and charm.) What Mark Baldwin achieves on a 4 track analog tape record is a true accomplishment (please listen to the multiple vocal harmonies, layered guitars and full drum sound. He only had 4 tracks! Amazing.) Anyway the song writing is incredible and virtually peerless. This classic record makes many references to T. Rex, Bowie, The Beatles, The Kinks, and many more. Check out "Talking to a Plant," "Man of Motion," "Pitiful Monk.." "Wizard's Hat," and "The Sun."
I love this record.
