Not michigancat, but I'll give a thumbs up to the Jayhawks (band). They just came out with a retrospective album that could be a good place to start. There are two different version of it, though, a 1-disk and a 2-disk. 1-disk is prob. the way to go unless you're already a Jayhawks fan, because the 1st disk is more of a greatest hits and the 2nd disk is unreleased, alternative versions, etc.
