What is the best One/Two punch to start off a Mats or Westy album? My vote goes to "I Will Dare/Favourite Thing" off Let It Be. Two classics right off the bat. I find that Paul lately likes to sneak in a filler song on the second track, ie. All Shook Down, Eventually, Suicane. I dunno... am I right?

Hmmmm...."Left of The Dial" and "Little Mascara" aren't a bad 1-2 punch. But I guess you mean to start off the album? If that is the case, then I think you have a good one for "I Will Dare" and "Favorite Thing". I would be a bit partial to "Takin a Ride" and "Careless" off Sorry Ma.

I think you probably have the winner with "I Will Dare" and "Favorite Thing," but "IOU" and "Alex Chilton" on PTMM ain't too shabby either.

I'd go with PTMM also. I had the vinyl back in the day and side 1 of the LP was as good as it gets IMO. IOU through The Ledge. "What're ya gonna do with yer life?" NOTHIN!

PTMM has the best two at the start of one of his albums: IOU and Alex Chilton, and the best two to finish up an album: Skyway and Can't Hardly Wait.

The one/two punch on Let It Be cannot be beat.
Infact, it seems like I Will Dare always ends up as track #1 on my mix tapes.
& not to change the subject BUT... props to your avatar Fungo. Your taste in music is excellent.

I agree with the "Let it Be" people. "I Will Dare" is my favorite song to start a Mats Mix with. I find it is one of the most accesible Replacements songs for the un-converted.
I also will say I really like the one/two punch of "Kid's Don't Follow" and "F*ck School". With the MPLS police opener and the disaffected youth sentiments you have a solid second place in my opinion.
