What'd be the best Bjork album to buy? I really don't know where to start with her, cos i don't know what any of the songs i've heard are called |

Debut is my favourite it has...
Big Time Sensuality
Venus as a Boy
Violently Happy
Human Behaviour
and most versions nowadays also have Play Dead |

I've only got this for now
Greatest Hits
Got it cheap in FOPP for £5 a while back after she was announced as headlining Connect as I only really knew her as 'that crazy woman who sang that screaming "it's oh so quiet" song'
Was surprised by how much I knew, despite never knowingly listened to her in any depth before. Could do worse than grabbing this as an intro |

I usually do. I prefer having a CD collection rather than a 'file' collection anyway.
And cheers for the hint about Greatest Hits as well Andy. Didn't even know she had one out |

Yeah me too there's just something about having the actual CD and the sleevenotes etc.
I didn't know myself she had a Greatest Hits CD they're always handy if you're not sure about a band
Here's that album |

The Sugarcubes would be great start... esp.. the Birthday song..

"Vespertine" is a right corker of a disc, the companion "Vespertine Live" is aces too.
