Have you heard
Nighthawks At The Diner? Its one of my favourite live albums ever. The atmosphere is amazing. It's certainly the best of his years at Asylum Records.
I like your top 5 list, so here's mine.
1. Alice
2. Rain Dogs
3. Nighthawks At The Diner
4. Orphans
5. Swordfishtrombones
I just find the theatrical aspects of
Alice mesmerising, and the music is beautifully dismal.
Rain Dogs is his classic, but I think
Alice is a little more cohesive..
