  • Id start with his sorta recent greatest hits album!

    its missing a lot o' essential tunes. but you'll most likely love every song.

    then go on to either
    "after the goldrush" or
    "tonight's the night."


    my fav is hawks and doves but! :D
    ...The Moon is Rollin' Round....
  • The Needle and the Damage Done
    Cinnamon Girl

    needle and the damage done is my fave song of all time. harvest is my fave album of all time. so aside from the songs on said album i like these best for starters:

    stupid girl
    lotta love
    pardon my heart
    only love can break your heart
    everybody knows this is nowhere
    dont let it bring you down
    comes a time
    look out for my love
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    Swim the magic ocean,
    I've been crying all these years
