End of an era, February 6, 2009Bya0 (Tucson, AZ United States)            This review is from:       This cd marks the end of one of the most frfuutil music relationships ever and definitely the best collaboration of the 90 s Pollard and Sprout. Although this cd is basically a compilation of unreleased tracks, it was the last thing that GBV, the little engine that could, put out before Mr. Pollard gave pink slips to his whole band and started over. And it's glorious. If you only like newer GBV, this may not be the place to start. This is lo-fi. But every song on this EP is beautiful. GBV weren't a band that really thrived on the EP's too much they focused more on making coherent albums but this EP as well as are essential for any GBV fan, and especially for one whose prefers the Bee Thousand/Alien Lanes era. If We Wait is, on its own, justification to buy this cd. It's one of GBV's best songs. I am stingy on 5 star reviews, so I'm giving this 4. Alien Lanes and Bee Thousand are the two GBV releases that truly deserve 5 stars.Help other customers find the most helpful reviewsa0Was this review helpful to you?a0  | a0
