>>        Although I'm relatively new to Jandek, as of late it's become a ritual of mine to acquire a new (for me) Jandek record before going out of town. My last few fixes were a little iffy in comparison to my surroundings, so I'd like to ask if anyone could recommend a decent Jandek record for the road... I'll be heading down to Savannah, Ga next month, if that's any help.
