Their greatest hits was one of my first CDs when I was 15, they were my first ever concert, and when Napster came around I was able to sample a lot of their non-hits (most of which I liked). It's hard to catch all the way up with a band who's been around for 50 years but I should at least dig in a little more.
    Try the "Imaginos" album. It is their heaviest by far. Has a lot of conflict behind it. Some even question whether it should be considered a BOC album. I love it and like I said, it rocks!

    • Did we ever establish a cutoff date for songs?

        Nope.
        If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

        • I've been planning to pick "Just What I Needed" for at least three days but inexplicably kept pushing it back.

                  Not following super closely but seems like a major steal.

                        I think they were the entree.
