Comment:

It's a grave injustice if people still think that the Silver Jews were a Pavement side project because, essentially, they weren't. This beast is totally singer/songwriter/guitarist Dave Berman's. Granted, I only got into them because Stephen Malkmus played the guitar on two of the Jews album but my initial intention has led me to an apprication of the band seperate from my appreciation of Pavement. Anyway, the Silver Jews released four great albums and all are represented plus one song each from their early EP's, "The Arizona Record" and "Dime Map of the Reef."

Nice. I'm missing a couple of records of theirs (that I once owned, frustratingly enough), or else I'd have done one of these long ago. *sigh*

I have heard good things about them, but never heard any of their stuff. Always good to see more obscure acts(to these ears anyway) getting the single-artist mix treatment. Well done.

I have mixed feelings about this. I respect your mixes so I know this is good but the band's name offends me. No one has ever accused me of being P. C. but you have to draw the line somewhere.

"Silver Jews" isn't a racial slur...it's jewish slang. It's a blonde haired jew. Nothing derogatory at all.
