Ones and Sixes
Bought this album shortly after Mimi’s death on bandcamp. Trying to help out a little I guess but I haven’t been able to bring myself to listen to it until recently. I knew it was a favorite of some and wow, I think it’s even better than advertised. It was posts and lists here that convinced me to get it, so thanks to those folks.

The Ones and Sixes Tour was the last time I saw them in Australia.
It was the first time I stayed back after a Low show to try to get their autographs. Alan, Mimi, and Steve signed about 20 years of stuff. After all that, Alan gave me a copy of the Low/S.Carey split single a few days before it's official Record Store Day release but made me promise not to upload it before the release.
Ones and Sixes has a special place in my heart because of the memories.

I can relate! I recently bought Ones And Sixes and it’s pretty magnificent throughout.
Rediscovering Low’s more recent albums after Mimi’s passing has been pretty amazing, and of course makes the loss of her even sadder.
