Twangirl, I can e-mail it to you if you PM me an e-mail address. It's a little more psychedelic and unpolished than the LP version, but I find it infinitely superior. It was only released on vinyl, but I found a digital copy on a compilation. GREAT stuff.

I'm not sure I could come up with five songs right now, but I'm really digging "Dead Sound" by The Raveonettes, which by the way just happens to Amazon's free MP3 of the week. Good stuff!

I also don't have four others, but I've listened to "California Girls" by the Magnetic Fields five times today already ... such an ear-worm
my favorite verse:
They ain't broke, so they put on airs,
the faux folks sans derrieres
They breathe coke and have affairs
with each passing rock star
They come on like squares
then get off like squirrels
I hate California girls

EDIT -- by the way, the rhyming scheme (ab/ab/ab) for the first three lines of that verse is great, it's too bad he got a little sloppy after that
