I'm an avid Jandek fan -- saw him live back in 06, and it was a trip. Still waiting for the release of that performance, by my account, keeping track of the live albums he's released, it should be out pretty soon.

I, for one, love his spoken word albums. They're definitely challenging to get through, and feel hours longer than they actually are, but I feel they're some of his most emotional and raw output.

Favorite albums include The Place (as it was the first of his I'd ever heard), Telegraph Melts, Manhattan Tuesday and Foreign Keys, though I love them all, and regularly listen to his entire catalog in release order (I call it OPERATION: TOTAL JANDEK.) It usually takes me about three to four days. And my head feels like mush at the end of it all.
