What’s Listening – Yo La Tengo
Time for something new. Every month I will be showcasing a different artist and album that I’m currently listening to. More than just browsing these artists, I’m going to be purchasing an album from each group in order to give them a fair representation and to increase their availability to others.
January’s profile is Yo La Tengo with their album “I Am Not Afraid Of You And I Will Beat Your Ass.”
Every song on this CD feels completely different from the next in both performance and tone, all of which have a sort of 60s feel to them. It’s the only album I’ve encountered that actually fills up a CD, providing almost 80 minutes of music (twice as much as most artists give you). Top songs include “Beanbag Chair,” “Black Flowers,” and my new favorite song “Mr. Tough.”
