Custom Made In 1968 I have loved this album and have been listening to it since it came out. It's completely underrated and overlooked, which is a shame because it is a beautiful lofi masterpiece. I still feel the exact same emotions every time I listen to it. Amazing. Favorite track: Sunday.

Mike Delejewski I have no idea how I never came across the Spinanes back in the day but thank goodness for reading the recent Pitchfork review. Manos is highly enjoyable and worthy of a long time stay in my current rotation. Great discovery of a mid90s Sub-Pop label band. Solid effort by the very talented Rebecca Gates.
