Oh yeah, and Emmylou's Wrecking Ball, amazing beyond words. (Time for that semi-annual Lanois love/hate thread? Gawd, I hope not.) But I still gotta give some props to Phair, if for no other reason than being able to crash the rock n roll testosterone party as she did. Still think Exile works better on paper than in reality tho.
