Lisa Stansfield is boring me. That surprises me.
'Serenity'
Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
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.

You should listen to Buffalo Springfield instead.
Or possibly Barry White.
I picked up some comps cheap this weekend.
Rebels & Outlaws for $4.99. Great nasty old country.
and...
Further Beyond Nashville which is realllly eclectic country with everything from Lambchop to Dylan to Laura Cantrell to Waylon Jennings to the Waco Brothers.
If I had to get just one Palace record what should it be?
Viva Last Blues?
There Is No One Who Will Take Care Of You?
or
Lost Blues and Other Songs? (I'm inclined towards this)
I'm inclined towards "There is no one..." but that's probably because it's got the most indie-rock feel, despite the lack of obvious indie-rock elements. I believe he had members of Slint backing him up on that one.
I have an old cassette that the Simple Machines ladies released in 1991 of Dave Grohl solo stuff. It's called "pocketwatch".
Also, he drums on the latest Queens of the Stone Age album.
I'd recommend Viva Last Blues, David, which has consistently brilliant material, but There Is No One, etc., Days in the Wake, and Lost Blues & other songs are certainly good choices. Don't get the Greatest Palace Music album under any circumstances (well, ok, the only reason to get it is to compare its slick production to the earlier, superior, rougher takes), though. That album makes me physically sick to listen to.

It's Trudy's tribute to John Cage....
