I LOVED 'Breakfast of Champions' and more recently 'Man without a country'. Of course, like all Kurt fans, I find it difficult not to like just about everything he has done. 'Welcome to the monkey house' is a great compilation too.

I saw him give a lecture at Heinz Hall here in Pittsburgh several years ago and found him to be a brilliant, funny, engaging, sincere and open person. Kinda like a favorite uncle you would like sit on the back porch with on a summer evening, knock a few beers back and listen to him tell stories. If you ever get a chance to hear him speak, go. You won't regret it. I don't.
