So glad to see ππΆπ³π§'π΄ ππ±'s been given the "archive" treatment, re-released with demos, alternative takes, and live cuts. I'll gobble up anything related to that beautifully bizarre album.

I got deep into music as soon as I could operate my family's huge wooden mid-60s-vintage stereo console, when I was four or five. Didn't use the radio on it, I just invaded my (much older) siblings' bedrooms & pillaged their record collections...
...which dated back to the early 60s. I was particularly fascinated by two pairs of albums owned by my brother Dean. He had two Beatles albums,ππΈπͺπ΄π΅ π’π―π₯ ππ©π°πΆπ΅ (the Canadian version of πππ¦π’π΄π¦ πππ¦π’π΄π¦ ππ¦) & ππ£π£π¦πΊ ππ°π’π₯, and two Beach Boys albums...
ππ¦π΄π΅ π°π§ π΅π©π¦ ππ¦π’π€π© ππ°πΊπ΄ (1966) & ππΆπ³π§'π΄ ππ±.
I guess toddlers have unsophisticated notions of time & what it does to people. I was fascinated by the difference between 1) the uniformed, clean cut guys I saw on the covers of the early albums...

...& the long-haired freaks in motley clothes I saw on the later ones, and 2) their approach to their music given a distance of only 6-ish years. It was more than just "development". Each band sounded nothing like it had just a few years before...
That was my introduction to what an artist is.
I fell under the spell of ππΆπ³π§'π΄ ππ± immediately, largely because of how alienating it was amid its beauty. I couldn't understand how the guy who recorded "Little Deuce Coupe" could come up with this...
