The Best of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds


The Best of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds is a compilation album from Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. It was released in 1998, following The Boatman's Call (1997).

In order to decide the track listing, Cave asked each of the Bad Seeds, past and present, to choose their favourite tracks from the ten albums—their lists would then be discussed until a final list was produced. In the end, only guitarist and founding Bad Seed Mick Harvey bothered, and it is his listing, unchanged, that makes up The Best Of.

Famous quotes containing the words nick, cave and/or bad:

    Only he who has had the good fortune to read them in the nick of time, in the most perceptive and recipient season of life, can give any adequate account of them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    We are not cave dwellers anymore, we live in the age of technology. When someone needs a car, he does not need to build it. He can buy it. When someone needs a murder, he himself does not need to kill. He can order it.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    Los Angeles gives one the feeling of the future more strongly than any city I know of. A bad future, too, like something out of Fritz Lang’s feeble imagination.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)
