I looooove Hedberg, totally cracks (well, cracked) me up. Recently spent four hours in a car with my husband and his sister's boyfriend, both of whom do these uncanny Hedberg impersonations. Nearly peed myself the whole way.
See, I did not know that ducks eat for free at Subway!

nice list ken - - but I can't see how you'd choose 'bryter later' of all of Nick's work. I consider it towards the bottom of his achievements - - personally, I'd choose either PInk Moon, or, my personal favorite (which doesn't really count as a Drake album proper) "Time Of No Reply", the home recordings. Well, here's my ranking of Drake:
TIME OF NO REPLY PINK MOON FIVE LEAVES LEFT WAY TO BLUE BRYTER LATER TANWORTH IN ARDEN MADE TO LOVE MAGIC

Now I have to hear Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain, Moving Pictures and Mr Bungle's California...
This project's costing me time and effort. Tsk.
Good call on the Badly Drawn Boy, Riley. I always forget what a great album that is.
Skvor - I'm not big on the Clash myself. But some of what little I have bothered picking up is that Sandanista doesn't seem much loved even by fanatics? Interesting pick.

I'm not big on the Clash myself.
Me either. I've never understood the vast infatuation with them. I do believe, however, that I could play "I'm Not Down" a million times in a row and still not burn it out.

Buy both albums, bowig. That way, you can see the progression and change from YFIIP to Broken Social Scene. Both albums are amazing. I was gonna out the new album in, cause I happen to like it more than YFIIP, but I wanna see how it feels a year from now.
