I have this on vinyl, so the sequencing is totally different from the CD version. I don't know which is supposed to be the 'right' one. I like the album very much, but I'm sorry to admit that I perhaps admire it in theory more than I enjoy listening to it in practice. It's not really that I don't 'get it', but more that I just rarely feel like actually putting it on, and have only listened to it all the way through in a single sitting on one occasion. So maybe I lose some avant-garde points there, but whatever. That said, I love love love Having Never Written a Note for Percussion, and would still always point to the album as evidence of Sonic Youths greatness not their pretentiousness.
