Got a $50 iTunes GC for X-Mas. I'll be getting UT March 18-20, '92, which for some reason I do not have, and then I'll probably fill out my SV Trace album (i have the retrospective but not the entire trace album). After that, I'm looking to get some more Centro/Will J/SSG stuff. I already have Love You Just the Same, Fort Recovery, Dual Hawks and Welcome Convalescene. So my question is: if you were going to buy 3 to 4 albums from the Centro-Matic universe, other than the ones I already own, which would you choose?

Thanks in advance friends and hope you and yours had a fine Holiday.

Will Johnson - Murder of Tides & Vultures Await, for sure, and the Molina/Johnson album

definitely vulture's await.

Redo the Stacks is a must. I concur on the Will Johnson albums.

Distance and Clime was a watershed Centro record. The bridge between what they were and what they are. No Centro collection is complete without it IMO.

yea, verily. All The Falsest Hearts Can Try contains many great songs as well but is very raw from a production standpoint.

Thanks all, these are some good suggestions!

Dual Hawks is fabulous!!!! It was my first Centro-Matic toe dipping in the pond (thank you PL) and I have just fallen in love with these guys "roll one more number for the road" via Wilco, which is great as well. (what could be on my little mind today!!! )

Vultures Await is a no-brainer.

Scored the following: Vultures Await, Murder of Tides, Redo the Stacks & Distance and Clime. All great stuff, thanks folks.

Awesome. Now go sing "Just To Know What You've Been Dreaming" to that beautiful little wonder of yours.

Oh I'll be doing a lot of that. Thanks 'tez
