Return of the Mac, SCORE! Vol. 1: Twenty Years of Merge Records compilation

[wpvideo DVXXT1Dg]Nice one on the Merge Records package that dropped in my mailbox today on the heels of last night’s righteous High Places live experience at SF’s uber-indie club, Bottom of the Hill (see previous post below.) Vol. 1 is curated by Peter Buck so you know it’s money. No liner notes though, hmm is Buck just too cool or too busy? No matter as some of my Merge favorites are in full effect on this first of 12 discs. I’m working/But I’m not working for you/Alright? Ya slack motherfucker….yes it’s true. Happy to work for anytime, Mac. Say the word & I shall be healed.

SCORE! Vol. 1 Tracklist highlights:

Slack Motherfucker- Superchunk

Requiem –M Ward

Love is Stronger Than Witchcraft- Robert Pollard

Sour Shores- Portastatic

Freak Scene –Dinosaur Jr.
