Comment:

Yeah, I made this because I relatively recently found out that a buddy of mine "hates" BNL, mainly because he didn't like 'One Week' when it came out and has held a grudge ever since. So I'm trying to introduce him to the earlier stuff, hoping he can appreciate the cleverness, melodies, and instrumentation of 'Gordon,' 'Maybe You Should Drive,' and 'Born on a Pirate Ship.'

I agree w/ the "One Week" sentiment. I discovered BNL through Rock Spetacle, and loved it. I do like "It's All Been Done Before" though - thats a great song. Looks like you have all the good ones here.
