it has best hits

Reckoning because it has Don't Go Back to Rockville.

I'm inclined to agree but it's got Shiny Happy People, which is a bit of a misstep in my opinion. Same thing with Stand on Green.

I've only heard Murmur, what else should I give a try?

>>72667269
Reckoning

>>72667269
going chronologically isn't a bad idea

>>72667269
Chronological except skip Fables for now.

What exactly is going on in the album art?

>>72665727
Everyone praises how they put their spin on country music on this album as to why its a classic, but I don't see the greatness of it next to Green and Automatic on each side of it in their catalog

Murmur to Document is a superb run, Automatic is also great. Reckoning has a reputation as a difficult album, but I don't know why(?)

>>72667498
Fables is more difficult.

>>72665754
Stand is way better than Shiny Happy People, not much substance but it's just a nice fun song

favorite's gotta be Automatic for the People but Green is a close second
