Half Japanese:

Music To Strip By:(1987)

If you're unfamiliar with Half Japanese I suggest you track down a copy of the documentary The Band That Would Be King. Jad and David Fair are pop geniuses from another dimension. On this, their fifth album, incredible originals like Stripping For Cash, and U.S. Teens Are Spoiled Bums are mixed in with a selection of covers like only Jad and David could do them, like La Bamba. 

Strange But True:(1998)-Jad Fair and Yo La Tengo

This is a killer album where Jad recites inventive nonsensical stories over music by Yo La Tengo. I love this record. It's an adult kid record.
