Awesome thread, I've been wondering the same thing since becoming obsessed with 'heaven or las vegas' recently ^_^

I must have everything they've released and all of it is awesome. My favourite band by far. Very Happy

I had a big Cocteaus revival in my house recently.
I also decided to hit ebay and try to find any eps I was missing.
Unfortunately I'm a vinyl junkie so some are a bit pricey.
I think I would have to say I prefer the later stuff but I agree that it's hard to go wrong. Each of the albums is amazing in it's own way.
I was unaware of the RG solo stuff - I must check it out.
I know it's unlikely, but how great would it be to have another album?

Personally, I would rather that they didn't!

They have left an amazing legacy, and let us be happy with that. I hate reunion albums with a passion! Also I was so pleased that the planned US festival gigs (Coachella, was it?) were ditched, too. At least Elizabeth has her scruples intact!!

Good for you, Liz... Cool

Blue Bell Knoll and Victorialand are it for me!!! They really are a bit of a musical Rorschach. The first album I bought by them was Blue Bell Knoll when it was originally released. I hated it at first but then it grew on me to the point where I not only listen to it today but it is the measure by which I use to determine greatness... It is by far (for me) the best album I have ever heard. Truly, I cannot imagine they will ever be surpassed... the guitar work and vocals are timeless. However, I understand there are a majority of people who can never get over her style and pitch and I have met some who feel nauseous when guitars repeat like echos over and over again. I truly feel sorry for them.
