i'd say pretty much everything she's released up to date is worth having
 and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Almost everything she did is quite good. Highlights for me are Comfort Woman and Plantation Lullabies. Those are pop albums. She also did a straight jazz album, called The spirit music jamia: dance of the infidel. That's totally different from her normal stuff. I don't like it very much.
If you can go see her live, you should. She's like Prince: live way better than on CD. | |

I'd say start with Peace Beyond Passion and Bitter. I dig her "live" albums more than the more electronic stuff, like Comfort Woman. Cookie is great, though. | |

My first introduction to Meshell's albums was with Bitter in 1999.
It's a rather introspective, somber record, but if you let it resonate with you it reaps multiple rewards. There's a cover of Jimi Hendrix's May This Be Love? that I find incredible. Also, I love the last moment of the album "Grace." Personally, I recommend starting with this album because it's the most rewarding. After that, it whetted my appetite for Plantation Lullabies & PBP. | |

'Peace Beyond Passion' is essential.
I met her in DC... I used 2 hang with a couple cats from her band. Federico was a monster on the keys... a human octopus. Peace. "He's a musician's musician..." |

You can’t go wrong with any of her albums although Bitter is my personal favorite followed closely by Plantation Lullabies. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |
