Indeed. I like the form of the album quite a bit. The duality of the sides. The staccato pop pacing of Side 1 vs the languorous atmospherics of Side 2. Sonically brilliant through and through.
When is someone going to get on board with me re: Lodger?
IY woke up naked on a beach in Ibiza in 1988. And the first thing he did? He threw on Lodger. The second thing he did was put on clothes.I'm a fan of Lodger. A big fan, actually. I reckon that is the closest that I will ever come to experiencing a drug-addled Ibiza holiday.
Dude, Hipster Kitty is so 2010.

I highly recommend checking out the reunion album Say You Will. It's all Stevie and Lindsey songs as Christine opted out of the project, and it's def a few tracks to long, but some VERY good stuff, though you'll have to get used to Stevie's weathered vocals.
It's definitely better than Tango in the Night (even if it rarely hits that album's peaks), and prob Mirage as well.
And a Lindsey song, one that was previously played on the live reunion album The Dance (also well-worth checking out, esp. for an INSANE acoustic solo version of Big Love which has to be seen to be believed):
Organ Donor (this being the only one I'm not big on)
Have you heard the Extended Overhaul of Organ Doner from Preemptive Strike? It's definitely one of my favorite DJ Shadow songs, the album version doesn't even compare! Give it a look on Youtube or something, I think you'll like it. I've never actually listened to The Outsider, have you? I've heard it's ok, just nothing like the rest of his work.
Fleet Foxes - 'Helplessness Blues'
Harry Nilsson - 'Jump Into The Fire'
No Endtroducing is the only of his I've heard. I too have read/heard that all his other work is "just ok", compared with Endtroducing, which I think can very well be classified as a masterpiece.
I'll give this overhaul a listen. Do you have the double disc Endtroducing? With the bonus disc, Excessive Ephemera? It's well worth it, got some interesting mixes, particularly Cut Chemist's remix of The Number Song, which changes the tone completely.

My favorite song on the album now.
is this cos of the LCD gig? or you already knew the song?
I actually like The Private Press a lot. It's no Endtroducing, but then again, what is?
