    http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=55866806 check out the track Black River on here another one that just shows the diversity of music he embraces with that voice.

    I remember reading that there is a new Soulsavers on the way as well.
    And an EP of material recorded with Isobel Campbell that didn't make it onto Sunday at Devil Dirt. http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/7199958/Keep-Me-In-Mind-Sweetheart-EP/Product.html Thats the one.:D
    Can not be arsed with life no more.

    i would go for the trees stuff and his solo albums first, then the collaborative work.

    Also, Lanegan has to be one of the most hardworking men in music, ive seen him live 4 times this year alone...playing on my doorstep.

    Yeah, he really is. Not sure why he doesn't have a place over here yet.

    I thought seeing him and Isobel at Union Chapel would be the final time for awhile, but then something even better is annouced for January. Then the Soulsavers should be gearing up to support their new album with a tour soon after.

    If anyone is interested, I can post the unreleased Screaming Trees album from 1998. It's only 8 songs but they're all pretty good.

    I have a request. I had some computer issues and lost about a 1/3 of my music collection. Anyway, there was an alternative version of Sleep with Me that was never released. Does anyone have a copy of this that they wouldn't mind sending to me? I would be foreever grateful!!!

    Sooooo glad we were able to convert a fellow board pal to a Lanegan fan. You won't regret it dude. The man really is amazing, and truly one of the hardest working men in music. The soulfulness in his voice is so authentic, it's hard to describe; you really do believe his lyrics, whether happy or sad. I used to be able to say the same for Cornell. Lanegan is my tops now, along with Eddie.

    i say start with bubblegum... his work with QOTSA is his dark side, gutter twins his folksy/dark side, soulsavers his gospel side, screaming trees his upbeat, straight rock side, and the rest of his solo stuff is pretty mellow acoustic stuff... bubblegum has a great balance and some nice cameos from friends

    everything the man touches is gold! a true artist!

    the order IMO is:
    -bubblegum
    -soulsavers
    -sweet oblivion
    -adorata
    "Senza speme vivemo in disio"

    Mark Lanegan is great!
    I love his music since Screaming Trees.
    Screaming Trees, solo, Soulsavers, Gutter Twins etc... Everything is amazing.
    Check out "I'll take care of you". It's a solo album with beautiful covers.
    Let's say knowledge is a tree, yeah.
    It's growing up just like me.

    in order:

    1. I'll Take Care Of You - solo album
    2. Saturnalia - Gutter Twins
    3. Sunday At Devil Dirt - with Isobel Campbell
    4. Sweet Oblivion - Screaming Trees
    5 - Whiskey For The Holy Ghost - solo album

    It's also worth checking out his first solo album. "The Winding Sheet" has a cover of 'Where Did You Sleep Last Night' featuring Kurt and Chris way before Nirvana did it.

    Yes and that cover is kick ass. I also really dig Down in the Dark, which also have Kurt on backing vox. Freakin' great, solid album...especially for his first solo outing. The man can do no wrong......

    I'll Take Care of You is an excellent album; full of more obscure covers. But don't let that fool you. It was the last one of his six solo albums that I bought; since it was all covers, it didn't entise me as much. HOWEVER, once I heard the album I was pretty amazed at his take on those covers. His vocals on songs like Consider Me, On Jesus' Program, and Shiloh Town are some of his best, IMO.
