Daydream Nation [Deluxe Edition] (1988)

Great as it is, Sonic Youth's seminal Daydream Nation wasn't quite calling out for a deluxe edition reissue. While there were a few stray songs from concurrently released singles from the late '80s, the sprawling double LP didn't leave much original non-LP material in the vaults.

Great as it is, Sonic Youth's seminal Daydream Nation wasn't quite calling out for a deluxe edition reissue. While there were a few stray songs from concurrently released singles from the late '80s, the sprawling double LP didn't leave much original non-LP material in the vaults. None, in fact, so Universal's 2007 double-disc reissue relies on live versions of every song from the album, all recorded at various points throughout the years, and these are buttressed by a demo of "Eric's Trip" and covers originally heard on singles and tribute albums (the Beatles' "Within You, Without You," Mudhoney's "Touch Me I'm Sick," Neil Young's "Computer Age," Captain Beefheart's "Electricity"). So, anybody looking for big revelations or hidden gems will be disappointed by this deluxe edition, but it's hard to deny the pleasures in the live second disc, either. Instead of following the album's running order, this live set jumps from song to song, forcing attention on the strengths of the individual songs and Sonic Youth's always captivating, frequently riveting performances. This may not make for essential listening, but anybody who truly loves Daydream Nation will find this deluxe edition quite easy to enjoy. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Read Less
