Just listening to this and have remembered how absolutely stunning "the man who loved beer" is - rest of the album is not quite up to that level but still pretty good imo.
Anyone got any recommendations for other lambchop albums?
ps. picked it up from Fopp for a fiverseems like its just been re-issued

Is A Woman is my fave...didn't really get on with Nixon for some reason. The last one "Damaged" is a cracker as well.

I also have "Is a woman", "Nixon" and "Damaged".
My fave has to be "Is a woman" - i've just been listening to it actually.My Flickr Page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/philnmorgan/

Got most of their albums - 9 I think - to me the best one is
"What another man spills"
Although it is a close call...
