#2 Babyland
I bought this record on the same trip to the “Love Garden”. I was infatuated with Babyland after my friend Brett played me the Babyland You Suck Crap record. When I got this record home all I could do was listen to Cop-out. The “Chips” sample put me in a trance. I think I’ve listened to this record close to 1000 times and it still doesn’t get old. I was fortunate enough to see them live years later in Omaha NE at the Cogfactory. It amazed me that most of the sounds you hear are actually broken garbage cans and this contraption they built. Plus the record is a screenprinted cat head. Rad!
