I think one of the nicest, and saddest, things about Scott Miller is that he so totally underestimates what a one-off he is. That he thinks of the Loud Family’s legacy as one of cut-out bin kings is a little tragic. We need more people like Scott making music and writing, not less.

I kind of love that I “know” personally and consider friends, in one way or another, the subject of this interview and many of the commenters. I think that’s one of the highest compliments that Scott/Game Theory/The Loud Family can be paid!

Scott Miller’s music also, to a large degree, brought my husband and me together. He never really knows, or acknowledges anyway, his massive influence on the, well, lots more than FIVE anyway, people of discernment who love & appreciate his music. I’ve been a fervent fan since “Pointed Accounts”, and only regret that there was no real way for me to have been aware of Scott & his music prior to then.

[...] Someone interviewed Loud Family/Game Theory leader Scott Miller very recently. Not a terribly GREAT interview, but Miller does the best he can with some pretty dodgy [...]

Scott Miller’s music brought my fiance and I together, but that’s not the only reason I hold him in high esteem. Nice to see some attention paid to him and his wonderful work.

If you’re going to talk about clever album titles, The Tape of Only Linda would have to be at the top of the list. Especially because knowledge of that kind of funny business in the dark ages before youtube was limited to college radio dj’s and record store employees. Thanks for this interview!

I picked up most all of the Loud Family albums back when one of the only ways for online music discovery was browsing people’s lists of recommendations on Amazon. Loud Family albums were, rightly so, included on many of those lists.

I have been a huge fan of Miller’s work since “24″ from “Real Nighttime” and loved The Loud Family. “Plants & Birds & Rocks & Things,” “Interbabe Concern” and “Days for Days” are, in my opinion, three of the top ten albums of the 90′s. “Lolita Nation” and “Two Steps From The Middle Ages” are two of my top ten albums of the 80′s. I wake up each morning hoping that the legendary Aimee Mann/Scott Miller album will have finally seen the light – so I have an excuse to sing Miller’s Cat Stevens cover, but also because I’d just love to hear it. Anyhow, loved this interview and am willing to hold my breath until the next Loud Family release if necessary.

The Loud Family were inarguably the best band of the 1990s. It kills me that they never got anywhere near their due.

I bought my first Loud Family album because of a smarty-pantsy interview in Option, and now having read this, I’m inspired to go back and re-listen to all my LF albums…
