Description While Nick Cave is a highly original and talented songwriter in his own rite, in common with many of the musical heroes he holds most dear, he rarely misses a chance to both acknowledge the influence and cover the music of those who have provided him with sonic inspiration over the years. This 24 track compilation collects together some of the most potent influences on Nick Cave''s enormous and ever-growing body of work. From the drone-blues of John Lee Hooker to the wild guitars of Jimi Hendrix, and from the punk-folk of the Pogues to the gothic-country of Johnny Cash - all via classic rock ''n'' roll, country blues, murder ballads, trad-jazz, one off novelties, Neil, Bob and Elvis. Phew, what scorcher! Packaged elegantly with outer slipcase and 16 page fully illustrated booklet (featuring extensive sleevenotes by music historian Derek Barker), this set is destined to appeal to both Cave''s enormous fanbase and to those with an ear for eclectic compilations of the devil''s finest tunes.
