Completely Conspicuous

Part 2 of my conversation with guest Phil Stacey about our favorite music of 1988. Show notes: - Recorded while driving home from Trillium Brewing in Canton, Mass. - Phil's #5: Sonic Youth focuses their sound  - Jay's #5: J. Mascis and Dino Jr. get more melodic while still delivering a heavy sound - Phil's #4: U2's first controversial album still provides a lot of memorable moments, overshadowed by the movie - Jay's #4 and Phil's #3: Living Colour's debut showed off their many talents - Jay's #3: Debut from Toronto's The Pursuit of Happiness combined hard rock, neurotic singer and girl group backing vocals - Phil's #2: R.E.M.'s last album before they became superstars - Jay's #2: Public Enemy at the peak of their powers - Phil's and Jay's #1: Los Pixies creates the template for the '90s alt-rock explosion - Favorite songs: "Gigantic" (Phil), "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos" (Jay) Completely Conspicuous is availa
