I didn't like Dirty much when it came out either, so much so that I skipped seeing them on that tour.
But you know how we all have one song that we'll go particularly apeshit if it's played at a gig we're at? Well, Sugar Kane is my bouncing around like an idiot song. It is, to my mind, the closest to perfection that Sonic Youth ever have been and ever will be. Even if I still thought that the album was too "rock", which I did at the time, I'd love it anyway because it gave that one song to the world.
