I’ve been revisiting their small discography, and I really like them. I may even like them more than later GI.

By “late GI,” I mean the last two LPs. Unlike a lot of people around here, I was never hugely into them. I got You when it came out and liked it just fine, but not as much as their previous records. I never even heard Crash until the ‘00s.

I do like GI-5 (in fact - anything from GI from Boycott Stabb onward is pretty much perfect) - but You is another level.
Crash is good follow-up....but definitely a little bit of a drop down....although - "Connecticut" is one of my favorite GI songs.
