That's next on my list and then I'll probably dive into The Wall.

I'll give it a spin for sure but perhaps I'll lower my expectations a little. Downloaded Dark Side last night so I'll dive into that one today. On this one, so far "Nightswimming" is my fav, followed by, "Find The River" and "Sweetness Follows" (the guitar on that one is especially lovely).

PSA: "Theöne" by Lambchop flows perfectly into "Find the River"



As does "Tonight in Bilbao" by Sun Kil Moon into "Theöne"

Agreed Zak - plus as amazing as Murmur can get, "Find the River" handily trumps every song on that album

Exactly Dylan mate. I mean don’t get me wrong murmur is an absolute classic and one of the all time great debuts but Automatic is Drive,Try Not to Breathe, Sweetness Follows, Nightswimming, Find The River.



There’s no other album I’ve heard personally that holds as many out and out unbelievable songs.

"Find the River" is the clear standout but I've always been partial to "Monty Got a Raw Deal" and "Ignoreland" as well

Does Murmur sound like this? Have been postponing listening to it. Only know A Perfect Circle (which is awesome).

"Drive,Try Not to Breathe, Sweetness Follows, Nightswimming, Find The River"



Those five are exactly the best songs on this.
