This compilation is kind of fun for me. But also very difficult. Getting a Pick on Bill Nelson will always feel incomplete. He has so many albums, So right away, it's impossible to narrow it to a CD's length. But that was the goal. My favorites may not be anywhere near someone else's favorites. In fact, probably not at all. It's not like Nelson had a lot of "hits" just fan favorites. I did include a couple of tracks where he played guitar on tracks I really liked from other artists. Monsoon with Sheila Chandra doing an amazing cover. And Cabaret Voltaire with a track from CODE that I really liked and was pleasantly surprised that it was one of the tracks on the album that Nelson played guitar on. I won't really get into genres here, but I kept the rock, the art rock, the new wave etc and tried to stay a little away from the ambient. He's got a lot of ambient. I hope you like what I picked.
