Ok, if you were to make a compilation CD for fellow Frank Black fans, what would you put on it? Here are some of the tunes/bands that I would pick:
Ween - Cold Blows the Wind
Ween - It's Gonna Be Alright
Ween - Stay Forever
Rolling Stones - Dead Flowers
Rolling Stones - Sway
Rolling Stones - Rocks Off
Bob Dylan - A Hard Rains A-Gonna Fall
Bob Dylan - Tangled Up In Blue
Bob Dylan - Stuck Outside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues
Simon & Garfunkel - Sparrow
Simon & Garfunkel - Kathy's Song
Simon & Garfunkel - A Poem On the Underground Wall
Hank Williams Sr. - Little Paper Boy (solo demo)
Hank Williams Sr. - At the First Fall of Snow (solo demo)
Hank Williams Sr. - Rock My Cradle Once Again (solo demo)
Iggy Pop - I Got Nothing
Iggy Pop - Johanna
Iggy Pop - Cry For Love
Ryan Adams - Winding Wheel
Ryan Adams - Hallelujah
Ryan Adams - Sweet Caroline
That's good for starters...I think most anyone into the newer FB stuff could like or at least appreciate the above...
A lot of other stuff I could mention such as Neil Young, or maybe some Whiskeytown stuff, but I'll wait and see what you guys/gals come up with....

| What about Iggy Pop - I Wanna Be Your Dog...that song rocks like nothing else. "I Think I Smell A Rat" is one of my least favorite WS songs...something off De Stijl would be hot, since it's more bluesy/rockabilly which matches FB's current state a lot better. |

Better put in some Tom Waits. "Come on Up to The House" or "Hold on" or something.

| Yeah, definitely some Husker Du.....Celebrated Summer, Pink Turns to Blue, Games......damn, suffice it to say that most hardcore Frank fans would probably be very much into any Husker Du album. I know that Frank was very influenced by Husker.... |

You know Jacques Dutronc in the USA? I never thought he was known outside the french boundaries. I like your selection, matto.
