Headquarters is a great album. "Zilch", especially, is amazingly... visionary, in a way. Del tha Funkee Homosapien very effectively used a sample of the Zilch intro for his "Mistadobalina" song. As you can see, I like their goofy side best.

My favorite is "Randy Scouse Git", closely followed by "Shades of Grey" and, of course, "I'm a Believer".

I think I like the Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart songs of theirs the best.
