best yo la tengo album? hmmm . . aside from all of them. ." painful" is just incredible, as well as"i can hear the heart". . really hard to pick one. . you just cant go wrong
My favorite band since I saw Ira do his guitar freakout on VU's "I heard her call my name" almost 20 years ago - I'm so glad they never stopped making noise (and I admire their fearlessness evident in their range of music)

Get Prisoners of Love to start because it will give you a smattering of what they do best... one. Once you hear prisoners of love you'll get hooked and buy all of them anyway.they hit all the sweet spots.

This song right here is as good a place as any to start with...they opened with this Omaha Slowdown...un. real. the previous post about the Sweet Spot nails it. But if you want a broad sweep get Prisoners of Love 2 CD set...it hits a lot of the strong stuff. Then, if it's meant to be, like me, you will get hooked & buy album after album. I Hear the Heart Beating as One is very solid... I could go on & on...
iwas new to yo la tengo about 5 years ago i just bought the prisoner of love best of double album still have it and it was the best i own i just saw it and the pictues in it and the song titles i new i would like this band

@nicolasdurruti It's never too late to start! "I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One" is indeed wonderful. Don't miss "Painful" and "Electr-O-Pura", too. Their albums became less noisy in the 2000's, but the songs are still great.
I would say get "Popular Songs". This track is on it and the rest of it is great too.
I really like their EPs: "little honda" and "today is the day".
Good LPs to start with are "Summer Sun" and "I am not afraid of you and I will beat your ass"
Anything by them is good though. Highly recommend the live show, but bring earplugs! Ira (guitar player) had to switch guitars mid-song when I saw them because he had rocked it so hard it went out of tune.
I was in the car litening to an Italian Indie Radio (Radio Antenna 1) ... And this came... OMG!!! I had to park and close my eyes and float with it. Bloody love it!!!!
i was stunned with this performance as well, it´s been a while since i came across a decent guitar freak out. i agree with the bassline comment as well, it´s right in the sweetspot. "Mr Hendrix, these are your children"
right. I also think they owe much to the Velvet Underground, for the experimental repetitivity of the pattern. I also love their low profile, their being so simply dedicated to the music, being so distant from the rockstar clichèes. Love them.
@StageExitLeft Ira Kaplan is such a master of the guitar it is insane. He runs the gamut from noise to soft pop with such eloquence it is unbelievable.

you should really give a good listen to 2 different Yo La Tengo albums...
1. And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out
2. Painful
The albums are really quite different, but in my opinion represent YLT the best...maybe I'm partial?
Cheers!
