My mate just gave me 4 'essential' Sonic Youth albums

weneedmorebooze [Edit] [Delete] 14:47, 12 May '10

They are 'Goo', 'Dirty', 'Daydream Nation' and 'Sister'.
I've never really listened to SY, and my mate said that the order
(above^) was the perfect order to listen to them. I know DN's the opus, etc, common indie knowledge; so that's the one I was gunning for at first, but he said 'Goo' was the best one to be introduced to them with, followed by 'Dirty' and THEN DN. After that, I can listen to anything by them, apparently.

Thing is, this guy talks an AWFUL load of shit sometimes, so I don't know if what he's saying is gospel. What do you educated lovelies reckon? I love the song 'Schizophrenia' and ofc 'Kool Thing'

Better asking here than anywhere else. I trust in y'all. Thanks very much!
