The Best Of Bright Eyes
Lifted Or the Story Is in the Soil Keep Your Ear to the GroundLifted Or the Story Is in the Soil Keep Your Ear to the Ground by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £4.55 / Used from: £4.35
The best example of the many dimensions of Bright Eyes. A perfect all-rounder.
I'm Wide Awake It's MorningI'm Wide Awake It's Morning by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £8.48 / Used from: £4.74
a.k.a. "Conor's Country Album" probably my favourite Bright Eyes record but not very indicitive of what Bright Eyes are about.
Don't Be Frightened of Turning the PageDon't Be Frightened of Turning the Page by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £17.49 / Used from: £34.32
A beautiful little lovelorn EP which contains all the Bright Eyes tracks from the split Son Ambulance "Oh, Holy Fools" EP. Son Ambulance's contributions to "Oh Holy Fools" are also highly recommended.
There Is No Beginning to the StoryThere Is No Beginning to the Story by Bright Eyes
Buy used from: £5.00
Short & sweet. A good first purchse/introduction. The track "From A Balance Beam" is taken from "Lifted..."
Letting Off the HappinessLetting Off the Happiness by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.48
This is Bright Eyes at their lo-fi best, white noise and what sometimes seem like accidental sounds are scattered throughout. An abstract masterpiece.
Fevers and MirrorsFevers and Mirrors by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.96
Worth purchasing for "The Calender Hung Itself" alone.
Digital Ash in a Digital UrnDigital Ash in a Digital Urn by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £7.24 / Used from: £4.80
Bright Eyes + Nick Zinner x Electronica = Greatness.
Four WindsFour Winds by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £10.49 / Used from: £6.08
The brilliant lead single and (US) EP from newest LP "Cassadaga", sees Conor running with the "I'm Wide Awake..." country/folk thing to very powerful effect...
First Day of My LifeFirst Day of My Life by Bright Eyes
Buy new: £4.99 / Used from: £3.86
Best. Single. Ever. Not only the lead track (which, i want played at my funeral, i know, grim) but the B-sides too, "When The President..." is the most justified attack on anyone. Anywhere. Ever.

Buy new: £4.73 / Used from: £19.26
Gorgeous live renditions of a selection of favourites recorded while touring "I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning", "Motion Sickness" features alot of nice brass parts and Feist & Elliott Smith covers.
