haiku record review

wilco: a ghost is born

You probably will need to
listen to it twenty times
Then you'll say goddamn

the streets: a grand don't come for free

What? Good white boy rap?
More ambitious than their first
With a real payoff.

the esg: a south bronx story

South Bronx funk sisters
made tunes ahead of their time
Much sampled, great sound

ulrich schnauss: a strangely isolated place

Dreamy stories, Schnauss
writes warm electronica
memory soundtrack

badly drawn boy: about a boy soundtrack

As a soundtrack, great
As a follow up record
to his last, great too.
