NICK CAVE / VARIOUS ARTISTS Nick Cave's Jukebox (2009 UK CD album - 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 23-track compilation collects together some of the most potent influences on Nick Caves 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. Presented in a picture slipcase complete with a 16-page picture booklet containing extensive sleevenotes by music historian Derek Barker)
