Yo La Tengo - President Yo La Tengo & New Wave Hot Dogs (1993/1996)

Indie darlings Yo La Tengo have enjoyed a long and esteemed career, and now sit atop a respectable discography. Among Yo La Tengo's past gems, 1989's President Yo La Tengo/New Wave Hotdogs may rank among the best. Barely preceding Yo La Tengo's destined-to-be-a-classic cover collection Fakebook, President Yo La Tengo finds husband-and-wife duo Georgia Hubley and Ira Kaplan bounding from garage rock anthems like "Orange Song" to looping, sonic sculptures like "Barnaby, Hardly Working." This rare disc is often a proud feature of any true fan's Yo La Tengo library. --Nick Heil
