If you are going to own one, Horses is the album. It is the one that shook the world when it came out. The cover photo was by Maplethorp. That opening line: "Jesus died for somebodys sins.. but not mine" Is a classic.

I also thought that her recent work "Trampin'" was surprisingly good. Not all reviews have been favourable, but that's not an unsusual situation. Regards,
