He was certainly among my vey favourites. I bought the albums with the Heartbreakers, his solo albums and the Mudcrutch albums as a rule, without listening first: he has never made a bad album. He didn't like Let me Up (I've had Enough) himself much - he said: 'The title says it all!'- but that one is good too, in my opinion.
Even though I knew him before from his big hits at the end of the eighties (mostly from Full Moon Fever), the first album I bought was Wildflowers (1994) - which is among his best, so it got me hooked. Wildflowers kind of changed his music, it became less about making hits and it gained more depth.
There was talk of an album of leftover songs from Wildflowers, called Wildflowers - All the Rest, but it never was released unfortunately.
The Last Dj is also one of my favourites, but it is impossible to pick favourites, because you have to pick them all - so consistent is the quality.
The Live Anthology is a fantastic box set and all his dvd-releases are very good, especially Runnin' Down a Dream, which includes a 238 minutes documentary and the 30th Anniversary Concert. This one is unmissable for fans, as he never was overly in the spotlight as a person, but this extensive documentary more than makes up for it.
Sadly he's now finally had his very last dance with Mary Jane and is gone off Into The Great Wide Open. Rest in Peace.
