Mercury Rev: Chasing a Bee

Classic! 1993. From Mercury Rev's first album Yerself is Steam - a beloved one, for me. They were Buffalo-made, and students of the old man's, and I listened to Yerself is Steam and BOCES a lot.

Brief history of the band's releases from New York magazine here.

Also, from the new album, Snowflake Midnight, released today:

Mercury Rev: Faraway From Cars

Also, finally, check for the free new instrumental album, Strange Attractor, floating around somewhere on the Yep Roc website. The final track - "Nocturne for Norwood" - is indeed what I expected/feared/hoped for, a meditation on Bills placekicker Scott Norwood, complete with audio of his forever-missed field goal.
