I am in the midst of a dilemma.
One of my friends recommended a CD to me. Generally, he has pretty good taste in music, so that’s not the problem. The problem is that the CD in question is Let It Be by The Replacements.
- Nigglybitz did Talking Heads already. Search titles only By.
- 1985's Rum, Sodomy & The Lash, their brilliant second LP was produced by Elvis Costello who also brought the Pogues on tour and later married the band's Cait O'Riordan. #445 on Rolling Stones magazine's '500 Greatest Albums Of All Time'.
You’re probably wondering why that is the cause of a dilemma. The thing is this. Up until today, when I added this particular album to my iTunes library, I had over 150 albums and 2,000 songs, which could be arranged chronologically (admittedly, with some selective endpoints) in this manner.
1960 – 1969 – 5 albums
Rum Sodomy & the Lash The Pogues. Released August 5, 1985. Rum Sodomy & the Lash Tracklist. The Sickbed of Cuchulainn Lyrics. The Old Main Drag Lyrics.
1970 – 1979 – 10 albums
1980 – 1988 – 0 albums, 0 songs
Pogues Rum Sodemy And Lash
1989 – 1999 – 61 albums (can you guess when I started getting into music?)
The Pogues Rum Sodemy And The Lash
2000 – present – 65 albums
That’s right, I had zero songs from albums released after 1979 (Pink Floyd – The Wall and Neil Young – Rust Never Sleeps) and before 1989 (Nirvana – Bleach, The Cure – Disintegration, and Nine Inch Nails – Pretty Hate Machine). I had always kind of thought of this as an interesting quirk of my music collection, but I had never gone out of my way to preserve it. But now that I’m faced with ruining that perfect gap in my collection (Let It Be was released in 1984), I find myself a little reluctant to do so.

I won’t fight it though, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Who knows? Maybe this will be the start of a string of albums from the ’80s for me. Any thoughts on what I am missing out on from that decade?
