One should get familiar with Jim O'Rourke recordngs to understand why "A Ghost is Born" sounds the way it does. O'Rourke not only recorded a lot of these tracks but he performs on a good number of them.
I recommend O'Rourke's last LP "Insignificance" as well as the Tweedy collaboration Loose Fur, which was recorded at the same time as the YHF sessions.
I also like how track three "kidsmoke" is very Neu!
What do you all think? I think Pitchfork did a good job reviewing this album. www.pitchforkmedia.com
