“Two Characters in Search of a Country Song” by The Magnetic Fields from The Charm of The Highway Strip (1994).
While ‘69 Love Songs’ is often considered The Magnetic Fields masterpiece, I would like to humbly submit ‘The Charm of the Highway Strip’ for consideration. The elctro-country album is not only one of a kind musically, it also contains plenty Stephin Merritt trade-marked wit that has made him one of the most unique and beloved songwriters of the last few decades.
