I think most fans would consider the PDF era the classic period of the band. I've never been super into their later material either, though some I have heard is decent. It's kinda like the Who after Moon passed IMHO...not really the same band after that.

I love the Bunnymen, but it's really all about the 1st 4 albums if I want to listen to them these days. I've tried some of the reunion stuff. My favorite was Siberia from 2005. I'd like to revisit that one. I think most of it is quite unmemorable, though. I don't even like the s/t that much, but it's got some tracks, but up to "Bring on the Dancing Horses," they were perfect and incredible.
I had a Julian Cope/Teardrop Explodes best of and I liked the TE stuff on there, but never explored them that much further. "Sleeping Gas" is an incredible song, as is "Poppies in the Field," especially the BBC version.
I've never listened to Wah! or any of Pete Wylie's stuff. I'm not sure why.
