Odelay - Beck
Dookie - Green Day (even if you hate GD, this cover is ace)
Doolittle - The Pixies (monkeys FTW!)

Good to see a Pixies band around here
That is an amazing album but all 5 main albums are equally amazing imo. I have a soft spot for Trompe Le Monde especially.

*edit* that band in the title should read fan. Oops-a-daisy

I'd forgotten how much I like the Pixies until the summer
then I listened to them on one day and forgot again...

true
but I do rather lack a load of their songs.

not being able to sing need not get in the way of success as a singer

That is entirely correct
However, when combined with looking like a sweaty IT consultant, your chances of making it as a rock icon are severely curtailed....

Do I have to?
Actually I was amazed to read recently that he was a regular (as performer and attendee) at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit in the late 60s and was not only a huge fan of but a good mate of the Stooges & MC5. I still loathe him though, just a little tiny bit less...

I don't like his music
and the best bit about the couple of decent films he's in is when he explodes or gets his head shot open.

He was on Bo Selecta (I think) once, and came across as quite amusing.

Shit.
I missed the Frank Black attacks. I would like to slice his fucking eyeballs in a Bunuel frenzy.
