As requested, New thread. If you could be in any band who released their best album in 1997, which would it be?

At the time, I never rated Geri at all.
Looking back now, how wrong I was. You can just tell that she would demand you leave her with a face like a plasterer's radio.

Looking down the list on Wikipedia
I'd maybe choose one of Stereolab, Tindersticks, Portishead, The Bad Seeds

French Disco was '97.

I prefer a good album to a best of, though.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Sun 8 Jul 2012, 23:13, Reply)

The first album (just called "NEU!") is the most Neu-like and certainly the one most folk remember them for.

It is the red text on white one then. All their albums seem to be called Neu! or some minor variation on that...

For a serious answer
Bluetones - Return to The Last Chance Saloon.

Bluetones were a very VERY good band.

Boatman's Call wouldn't be a bad place.
If you don't mind a maudlin break-up album.
Abattoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus is just great.
You can't really go wrong though, he doesn't have much in the way of duff albums.
