The Fun Years
Baby, It’s Cold Inside
(Barge, 2008)

You may have noticed that Baby, It’s Cold Outside now outranks Gang Gang Dance’s Saint Dymphna (my pick for #1 of 2008). I still love Saint Dymphna, but I was slightly off target when I relegated The Fun Years’ baritone guitar and turntable masterpiece to spot number two on that list. There is so much to rave about here I don’t know where to start, so I will just end: an utterly gorgeous masterpiece of blissful moods through meticulously blissed-out means.
