DEFINITELY 'Alice' and 'Blood Money' are worth listening to. 'Alice' has more softer elements to it while 'Blood Money' sometimes seems like a soundtrack from hell.
'Bone Machine' and 'Rain Dogs' I can also recommend, but they aren't as good as either of the other two. They aren't as complete albums as collections of songs, but they are damn good songs.
'Closing Time' is one I just got and it is one of his earliest albums, before he developed his trademark snarl, but it is still a good album. And you won't have to get used to his voice for that one.
