Recently ended up with E=MC² and Medicine Show after a random swap of MP3 files and quite liked both of 'em. Can anyone recommend a good starter album or compilation? Is first album "This Is Big Audio Dynamite" the one to go for?
Or were they just a "singles" type of band?
Cheers!
No 10 Upping Street isn't a bad album.
I stopped following them after the Megatop Phoenix album in 89

This is pretty much what you need to have the best stuff. They could be very hit and miss. What was good was superb, the crap was... errr... crap
Albums 1-4 are all excellent,This is B.A.D being the first & best. Once they changed to BAD II it was over. Thought they had better albums than singles myself.
Rush,Bottom Line,Medicine Show,Innocent Child,and Free are all very good tracks to have in your locker...But if you have'nt got the track "Applecart" already,get it...Quite simply one of the best songs by anyone ever
As Joe Strummer said when Mick Jones invited him round to hear the demo's (1st time they had spoke since Strummer & Simmo booted him out in mid 83')" It's no good Mick- you need me"
i first got into them when megatop phoenix was released. it's a pretty good album, and contact is my favourite BAD song. however, i also think they're more of a singles band. find a 'best of' album and start out with that.
