Ok, so I was thinking today of what a Frank Black and Catholics greatest hits album would look like, and was wondering what all you guys and girls thought. And I'm not necessarily listed all my favorites, but realistsically what songs would make it if such an album came out, so heres my short humble list, give me your opinion
Los Angeles Headache I want to Live on a Abstract Plain Men in Black Bad Harmony Billy Radcliffe Dog Gone Solid Gold Robert Onion Bullit I'll be Blue Dog in the Sand Evereything's New Nadine
my humble short list, im asking for your guy's expertise which I dont possess, rock on |

You include the pre-catholics period, I see. Here is my list, though it's pretty difficult to make a greatest hits without putting 60 songs on it :
1) Los Angeles 2) Fu Manchu 3) Headache 4) Speedy Marie 5) Two Reelers 6) The Marsist (I know everyone would like Men in Black instead, but the marsist is sooo relevant now) 7) The Last Stand of Shazeb Andleb 8) Dog Gone 9) All my Ghosts 10) St Francis Dam Disaster 11) Bullet 12) If it takes all night 13) End of Miles 14) The Farewell Bend 15) Massif Centrale 16) Horrible Day

I would add Manitoba and put Czar as a secret live track.

I made my brother and a friend a best of Frank Black CD a while back, it ended up being two discs and close to 50 songs. I figure a real greatest hits would be what he released as Singles and a few favorites that he always plays live. Until then, just buy it all and love it all. Can't wait for the B-Sides collections to come out. |

Why does Calistan get left out? That is surely one of FB's greatest songs. |

So, this is clearly the Best of Frank Black and not FB & TC's, right? Cause those are two different lists for me...

not meaning to be disrespectful, but a greatest hits collection would have no songs on it. Unfortunately, I can't recall FB and the C's ever having a "hit" A "Best of " for me would go something like this:
All my ghosts Dog Gone Western star Billy Radcliffe 85 Weeks St. Francis Dam Disaster Bullet Dog in the Sand Valentine and Garuda I will run after you End of Miles Velvety San Antonio, TX Are you Headed My Way? Everything is new My Favorite Kiss This old Heartache Coastline
