Mostly for Tom, but some of you might also enjoy: a gappy, work-in-progress Mountain Goats playlist on Spotify. [n.b. All Hail West Texas isn’t on there for some reason. Which is a real bummer.]

I am spending my lunch break making a Spoon playlist on Spotify, in an attempt not to be so haterade-y on it. Douglas made a good mix — so I thought, what the hell. Hey, guess what? 85% of the songs I want to include are listed, but JUST DO NOT PLAY. Great.
