Bold = awesome tunes! I'm not that keen on R.Stevie Moore, Sonic Youth, Pavement or Porcupine Tree myself, but that's mostly due to unfamiliarity, and not an awful lot against the artists as a whole.
Funny you should mention that live version of Veronica being the better (good to hear you're digging the bootleg as well) - while I like it myself, I just think you can't really beat the original on Spike. It's that richly-layered and complex production style that does it for me, and what makes Spike as a whole one of my all-time favourites.
Good to hear you like Sam & Dave too. I'll fess up and say I don't listen to that particular song an awful lot. Can't You Find Another Way Of Doing It Baby, You Don't Know What You Mean To Me and Soul Sister (Brown Sugar) are my personal picks of the bunch. Then again, there are just so many of them - that CD's up there with the best bargain bin purchases I've ever made.
The rest of them I can't argue with
If you like the dirtier, rock 'n' roll side of Primal Scream by the way, check out an album called Riot City Blues - nothing amazing but good, fun stuff all the same.
