Elephant Jokes  (Music, Audio CD)

2009 solo album from the prolific singer/songwriter and former leader of Guided By Voices. You want nostalgia? OK, heres some nostalgia. Think music as real and unselfconscious as anything since Same Place the Fly Got Smashed or songs alive with Alien Lanes aesthetic but even hookier and smarter. Music that sounds just like friends playing for the fun of it in the family basement (so the familys grown up and moved away, its a different house, and its not exactly a basement anyway, but I defy one to hear the difference). 22 tracks.
