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.
