on occasion we post links to mp3's
And what occasions they be. Now is such a time. Here's something of a lost classic from Guided by Voices, a pugnacious little tune that appeared (in a lower fidelity) on the Suitcase box. You can't tell due to the ultra-shitty needle on my old turntable, but this version was recorded on a studio, and far surpasses the four-track rendition. This one comes from a double-vinyl bootleg that popped up in '98 or so. It's three-and-a-half sides of live GBV circa '96 or maybe '97, with three studio outtakes rounding out side four. The other two studio tracks are pretty good, too, but nowhere near as good as "Pantherz". Also, if you can name the true GBV classic that recycles the guitar line from this song, DJ will buy you a couple cases of Molson, and give you all of Ice's stash.
