impossible to choose, an all Lee mixtape would make a killer album+... Excited for the new record, so vital!

in addition to all above:

The Bridge
Bloomington, Indiana


future:

Karen part III (not written yet)

Streamed "Times/Tides", really surprised and impressed, some totally new colors in the palate.

In alphabetical (read: no particular) order, although I can't imagine ever tiring off Hoarfrost, Genetic and NYC Ghosts & Flowers:

Sonic Youth:
Genetic
Hoarfrost
I Dreamed I Dream
Karenology
Mote
NYC Ghosts & Flowers
Paper Cup Exit
Rats
Saucer-Like
Skip Tracer
Wish Fulfilment

Solo stuff:
Amarillo Ramp (For Robert Smithson)
Ambient Loop For Vancouver
Live In Bilbao (w/ Rafael Toral; bought this from Toral's site)
Smoke Ring / The Leap Of Faith
Time Stands Still, Destruction Site, Oroboron, Slo Drone (from East Jesus / From Here To Infinity)
Xtina
Probably some tracks from Music For Stage And Screen, although I haven't listened to it a lot. Me like on first few listens though.

And as an aside: Eric's Trip should NOT be in any playlist - I'm sorry, but there's just something about this song that really rubs me the wrong way.

There are more than 10 Lee songs? Just kidding. I say that because your track is usually my favorite on each album, yet there's so few.

1) Wish Fulfillment - side note: I've spent days and days of my life with this song. Listening to it on repeat in high school. Learning it on guitar. Dubbing it onto cassettes for girls. I can't believe this wasn't played live. It might fight with 'Diamond Sea' for best SY song all-time in my book.

2) Pipeline
3) Mote
4) Saucer Like
5) Genetic
6) Skip Tracer
7) Karen Revisited
8) Hoarfrost
9) Eric's Trip
10) Rats

Are you sure it was Sonic Youth and not Lee solo? I'm almost positive I saw Lee perform this solo. In fact, I'm pretty sure it was at the 4/1/99 show.

The other lists speak to me as it is so I want to mention some songs that did not make it into the lists although Lee has a large part in writing all Sonic Youth music... some of these do feature Lee vocals. I could list many but i will only list a few in case anyone else is interested in making a favorite Lee music even if not officially a Lee song list. : ) it is kind of a messy list, apologies.

Antenna
Silver Rocket / Trilogy / Sprawl+Cross the Breeze
Ghost Bitch
/ Hallowe'en / Flower
Becuz / The Diamond Sea
Hits of Sunshine / Female Mechanic / Wildflower Soul
Xpressway / Shadow of a Doubt / Marylin Moore
New Hampshire / Peace Attack / Pattern Recognition
Catholic Block / White Cross / PCH / Beauty Lies in the Eye
and....
NYC Ghosts and Flowers / Murray Street just in general needed Lee just as much they needed Jim to be as masterful as they are! Lee's futurism and exploration mixed with O'Rourke's well-honed creative pallete was and still is a once in a lifetime.
