Today's play-all-the-way-through formative album: Short Sharp Shocked, the hugely under-appreciated 1988 studio debut of a true American original, Michelle Shocked, whose subsequent few albums had high points but weren't quite as good, and whose work since has been wildly uneven. But there's not a bad song on this tight, rootsy, quirky but totally grounded Pete Anderson-produced blues/folk-rock record, from the opener on down.

Kirk Wilson LOVE this album. Totally agree with everything above.
Kirk Wilson I
took Michelle to her first drag show (The Plaza on La Brea next to
Pinks) with a bunch of ACT UP folks who are no longer with us. Good
times.
Rebecca Novick Best album ever. Also good memory of seeing this tour during my freshman year of college.
