I've always enjoyed Strawberry Jam too. It was my introduction to AC. Chores, Fireworks, Reverend Green, Derek, etc. are songs I would put on any AC mix. For Reverend Green might contain some of my favorite vocals from Avey, and I love the guitar. Is it the same technique the Smiths used for How Soon is Now?
You know what else is great from that era? Street Flash.

Chores is definitely one of my faves. I'm giving street flash a spin, i've never heard it before.

i'm listening to "my girls" right now. hmm not really feeling this in any way. it doesn't help that i hate claps in songs (it almost even hurts john mellencamp when he does it).

I seldom revisit any of their albums. I was in such a different head space when I overloaded on this band. At one point, they could have recorded the band coughing, looped it, and I would have bought it.
However, there's some solid gold in their catalog that still hold up for me. Most of what they do best contains the following: Acoustic guitars, harmonies, unpolished production, and rhythm. When these four elements combine, some of the prettiest songs I've ever heard have happened. Sung Tongs has these sort of things in spades, and I still listen to it from time to time.
