On the Beach
Neil Young ·1974
"I found this once today, 'On the Beach.' I love this record because I especially love the cover that is nearly on 'On the Beach,' and it's just brilliantly weird."

Safe as Milk (Mono)
Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band ·1967
"Captain Beefheart, 'Safe as Milk'—let's talk about a few of the tracks on here. There's three that I think I could say are all-time favorite songs of mine: 'Drop Out Boogie,' which is something that Jamie and I covered way back in the day, I love that song so much; 'Zig Zag Wanderer'; and 'Electricity.' This record is just too good to be true, it really needs to be in your collection if you don't have it. Everything about it's great, you know, I couldn't possibly love this record more."

Instrument
Fugazi ·1999
"I swear for a year I watched this on VHS every day probably every day or at least of course you know that every day because it made me happy really really inspiring and I wanted to just live inside of this stone."
