For those who know, this may sound like preaching to the choir; but for those who don't, this is a brilliant introduction to one of the greatest rock bands in the world. For newbies, the only drawback is the liner notes may feel a little weak covering a band at 20+ years and going strong. The beauty of this recording (3cd set) is the fact that 20 year old songs can sit next to recent music and not sound dated or out of place and the 3rd disc of rarities + outtakes puts a new spin on some familiar matierial. This record rocks. Suggestions for listening? disc 1 at home, disc 2, in the car and disc 3 at work so you never have to go without a little Yo La Tengo.
