As someone who has only ever tangentially listened to Björk, what are the essential Björk/Sugarcubes albums?
Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I think Bjork's album Debut is the best place to start.
There's really only the one Sugarcubes album worth owning, I think, but it is good.
Skip Sugarcubes and go to Post.
Bjork's singing on the Sugarcubes' "Birthday" is amazing. That's really the only Sugarcubes song I love.
So I totally missed this and it's no longer available as a download from Spin: FREE ALBUM: SPIN Tribute to Nirvana's 'Nevermind' It's called "Newermind" and I can't find anywhere to download it now.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Hec! I just had to download a utility to extract from the .RAR file and I was set.

There's a lot of interesting stuff on that Nirvana site, actually:
Huh. I'll check it out.
Just scored tickets to the concert marking the 30th anniversary of the Jesus and Mary Chain's Psychocandy. Friday, May 1st here in Toronto. Not sure how I should feel, kind of melancholy and fuzzy around the edges, I guess.

Woo! I know they're playing SF, but my friend on the East Coast is lamenting no dates thataway.
