Nick is very powerful, no doubt. But he's no Iggy Pop. I was at the Forum, up front in GA and he must have made super-intense eye contact with every single person in the first 3 or 4 rows. Nice for us, maybe not as interesting for everyone else. Mick, on the other hand, sets his sights a little higher. I didn't care for his shtick of bringing fans from the far seats up on stage at the end - especially those with cameras. But it was, as stated above, a very "church" experience, appropriately for the venue.

Saw him last night in DC (7th time in 10 years). A high energy, quasireligious experience. He prowls the front of the stage like a feral preacher. Up there with the best front men.

Many people have been telling me how great Nick Cave is, yet I know this one song he did with Kylie many yers ago and that is it. It looks like he gets a lot of prize among IORRians too and it happend to me a couple of times, that I went to check an artist that I didn't know much about, based on positive feedback here on IORR. And never ever was I disappointed. So the next Friday I will try to get a ticket for Nick Cave.
As I know really next to nothing about his work, I would appreciate your suggestions, what should I watch, what should I listen to. For the beginning, I don't want a list of 10 CDs (that will come later, if I get hooked :-), now only the really essential stuff. Mostly I would want to watch some concert to get the feeling what the live experience is about. I know there is some recent concert from Copenhagen, I will definitely watch that, but is there any other really essential DVD i should watch to get to understand what is the fuss about? Thank you for your suggestions!

Listen to "Live Seeds". There are some other good concert dvds out there also. The Greatest hits is a pretty good career overview. Also, there is a fantastic set from Glastonbury on youtube. Murder Ballads is a fine record. This will get you started. If you get into it, will help you go deeper if you want. Highly addictive!

PS: the new record "Ghosteen" is album of the year in my opinion. It is a very sad & quiet record though. Excellent Sunday morning music!
