''A Thousand Leaves'' is an album by Sonic Youth. It was the group's first major album to be recorded in their private Manhattan studio, dubbed Echo Canyon.
There are several French references on ''A Thousand Leaves''. On the CD label the phrase ''mille feuille'' is crossed out and ''a thousand leaves'' is written under it. The name of the first song, "Contre le Sexisme," means ''against sexism'' in French. "French Tickler" refers to a sex toy of the same name. It was Thurston Moore who came up with the title, which is inspired by Walt Whitman's ''Leaves of Grass''.
''A Thousand Leaves'' peaked at #38 on the UK Album Chart in May 1998. - Wikipedia
