S2E50 – Minutemen – “Double Nickels on the Dime”

This 1984 double album by Minutemen was (and continues to be) a peak, at the zenith of what Alternative Rock in the US aspired to in the 1980s. Over 40 songs of introspective beat poetry and political observations set to a totally legit, funky, angular soundtrack by three 1976 graduates from San Pedro High School. Proposition: This is one of the greatest albums ever recorded. Counter-argument: ??? Rob and Barry take their seats and get schooled by D, Mike and George.
