Forgive me if this has already been discussed to death, but if ever a compilation was needed...

So what's essential?

Actually, what's essential is the album If You're Feeling Sinister. Just buy that. If you love it, buy more, but it is a pretty perfect little record, and if you want to hear B and S, you shouldn't be without it

What about the remix to "I'm A Cuckoo" by The Avalanches? Heard it twice and loved it.

And thanks for all the recommendations, ya'll.

keith m (keithmcl), Saturday, 21 February 2004 02:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I was going to put London Has Let Me Down, and Rhoda, on my list too, but it was hard enough picking ten things they have released without adding my wishlist to it as well...
