{"product_id":"then-the-earlier-years","title":"Then: The Earlier Years","description":"Amazon.com\n\nBefore they became a successful major-label act, New York smart-guy popsters John Flansburgh and John Linnell started out as a resourceful do-it-yourself duo, recording their wacky ditties at home and making them available to the public via their Dial-A-Song hotline. That playful, resourceful spirit is the order of the day on this 2 CD, 72-song compilation, which incorporates the contents of the early TMBG albums They Might Be Giants, Lincoln, and Miscellaneous T, plus a passel of previously unreleased oddities and some droll liner notes written by the artists. The wildly eclectic yet consistently accessible material (including the early hits \"Don't Let's Start\" and \"Ana Ng\") still sounds fresh and inventive, embodying the pair's trademark blend of smarts and silliness. --Scott Schinder\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000003BLB\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000003BLB.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:They Might Be Giants\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
