i find his only album I want to keep coming back to is The Boatman's Call.

 

[Goodbye]

The Good Son for me.

Kicking Against The Pricks was the first record of his I heard, (well tape actually)... round the same time I saw Wings of Desire for the first time. Thought he was cools as fuck.

 

[Anthony]

ah yea, I can probably go any of his albums (except nocturama and no more shall we fall asleep from boredom) every year or so. But TBC is the bessy one.

 

[Goodbye]

I think it all got a bit boring when he started writing in an office.
Till Grinderman, I found his last few albums to be a bit meh

Er, he's been writing in an office since 1984 when he wrote the first draft of 'And The Ass...'.

Personally, I think he 'spooked his muse' c. Murder Ballads.

 

[Goodbye]

aye, Murder Ballads was his Batman album.

 

[Mitchum]

Anyone ever meet him?
I'm afraid his withering stare will turn me to dust but I'd be innerested in hearing some anecdotes.

A mate of mine had a pint with him in Jonathan Swift's bar in Manhattan. My mate's from Mayo: 'Saw you at Reading in '91, Nick. Pure savage.'
Nick-'Savage, eh?'
My mate-'Pure savage.'

never met him, but I have been in that bar several times. Nice.

 

[Alan Remorse]

No More Shall We Part is a fucking amazing album!

Seriously, the first 6 songs on that record are all bone fide classics, amongst his best without a doubt for me.

 

[worthit]

i had a few opportunities to meet him at the dirty three ATP but he didn't give off a very approachable air so i left him alone. He was on the same train as my mate back to london afterwards. I did talk to Warren Ellis though. He was nice.

We used the same practice space as him in Melbourne (weirdly enough).
We were practicing in the room next to him one day.

 

[Lolo]

Anyone ever meet him?

Have been in the same room as him a few times but never spoken to him other than "hello". I did however take this - I like the way his moustache is trying to annexe his wife's face:

 

[Goodbye]

Is that my old neighbor on the left?

 

[Lolo]

Is that my old neighbor on the left?

Tis indeedy.

 

[Goodbye]

His wife is in a very David Stop Making Sense Byrne typa outfit...

 

[Lolo]

I think it might just be the angle I took it at. She looked at it on my camera and said to Kaz "Oh well, at least you look nice in it...."

He and Warren Ellis stood beside me at ATP, watching Mary Margaret O'Hara. They were nudging each other going "psst, check out who we're beside, snigger". Then Nick went to the bar to get beers. Even walking to the bar he had swagger. He has remarkable presence.

 

[snakybus]

Oh and, I'm from Mayo as well. The opposite of "pure savage" is, I suppose, "very dodge altogether".

After skipping the horrendous queue at the bar he bought my mate a pint during the very same set. I was seething with jealousy, natch.
My mate still goes on that treasured moment to this day.

I've met Lou Reed though so it's one all.

Maybe he thought you were referring to his keyboard player:
