I’m late to the party, but I think you should pick up the Femmes’ live album “Viva Wisconsin.”

It’s basically a greatest hits set with almost everything from the first album (Sadly no “Please Do Not Go” though) and several of their best songs from the other albums.

cool, thanks dudes. i’ll probably just go ahead and take both for a spin and see how they fare. loved american music, and probably gets played more today than when it was released.

I’ll go against the grain here and say that “Why Do Birds Sing” is the album to buy. I think it’s a more mature (if there is such a thing) album than their first and it sounds so good.

“American Music” is the single that should have made the group a fortune, but sadly, didn’t.

I agree. The self-titled has held up remarkably well and features most of their best known songs…my favorite being “Good Feeling”. I haven’t many of their albums but from what I understand, there’s a few other pretty good ones.

their best is probably their self titled where most of the hits came from
