Just listening to the new Collector's Choice cd of both "Cypress" and the
"Afoot" ep.  Great, but too small typel liners--I never knew the band got
its name from a Japanese t-shirt with jumbled syntax...I've seen those
shirts before so it makes sense now.  These tunes which take me back to my
college days still sound great to these ears....the ever present Easter
guitar jangle, great vocals from Mitch and Faye, lovely  textural production
and art-rock has worn well and sounds timeless to me despite Mitch calling
them "creaky."  It's funny they mention that his prog sensibilities came out
on Cypress because I always did think Let's Active had a real complexity to
it that made them stand out along with the dB's and R.E.M.--my faves during
that time and still.  A fantastic addition to my collection along with the
cc dB's to fer...haven't gotten to the two bonus cuts yet, but I'm sure they
will be cool...
