I was just thinking this (again) about what I deem hands-down the best record from last year, _The Marshall Mathers LP_. This reveals what a horse-race fanatic I am--every time I pull out PJ Harvey's _Stories from the City..._, which came out the same year and is also tremendous, I mentally lash myself for not putting the Eminem on more often. It *is* to my mind an even better record--wholly original, so musical while so gruff, but *so* damn disturbing. I just never seem to be in the mood to put myself through the heavy-as-hell-art-grinder any more. --Michael NP: Radiohead, _Kid A_ Find the one for you at Yahoo! Personals http://personals.yahoo.com
