Streethawk: A Seduction, on vinyl. Pitchfork's reissue review sums this one up nicely:

But then there's Streethawk, a record of practically nothing but graceful abandon. Each line seems immaculately crafted, every note falling into perfect order, every word sung with the proper bite and bile. This is what Bejar was building to, why he became a songwriter in the first place, and he reaches quite a precipice. Songs move effortlessly between bits of received wisdom, the drama is amped up to almost unthinkable levels, and these tunes feel like a long series of exclamation points. The guy got really good really fast, and he knew it-- his wit is sharp, his observations are keen, and his gaze is withering.

Yep, it's cold in my house and it felt like time for some Christmas music while doing a thorough Monday morning cleaning. Soon enough I won't want to hear any Christmas music ever again, so might as well hear the stuff I enjoy before I reach that limit.
