If you were stranded on a desert island....

[Jim Clark]

If your island is close to mine you guys are going to have to turn most of that down or I'll swim shark infested waters and do it for you!

Clash-London Calling-still gotta jam
Alphaville-Salvation-For some hope
Stan Ridgway-Mosquitos-like it won't be quite desolate enough
Interpol-Turn On the Bright Lights-something from the present
Ramones-It's Alive-'cuz a). You still gotta have fun and b). it gives me the most Ramones songs in a single disc.

You better remember also that we can swim too

The Clash's London Calling is a great album. As matter of fact, it was called the best album of decade 80's by RollingStone magazine
.

Today my island be blastin'

10cc: Deceptive Bends
BeBop Deluxe: Axe Victim
Freedy Johnston: This Perfect World
Neil Young & Crazy Horse: Everybody knows (the rest of this title)
Yes: The Yes Album

Some great tunes coming from the other islands around here. Notables are Yo La Tengo, Graham Parker and Simple Minds. When you put those on crank 'em up please...

(It's not my joke originally, but someone has to post it)
#1..."How to Build a Bamboo Raft" audio book.

OK, now...in no particular order...

REM - Reckoning
Springsteen - Born to Run
U2 - Achtung Baby
The Who - Who's Next
The Stones - Sticky Fingers

I gotta say, it's mighty hard to keep Bowie's Ziggy Stardust off this list. Maybe instead of The Who...

I'm with Jim. If any of you guys are on islands close to mine, i'd fashion a coconut launcher and start bombarding your systems until i hit it.

Anyway, here's mine.

"Beaches" from the Jimmy Buffett boxed set. "Bars" and "Boats" would only make me depressed, but Beaches may help me see the good fortune i had to be alive at all.

Disc 2 from the Allman Brothers boxed set.

Grateful Dead - Live: Without a Net

Widespread Panic - Live from the Classic City

Handel's "The Messiah" (Been listening to that one a lot during the holiday season so its fresh on the brain. Would probably be something else at another time.)

I hate this stupid thread but will post 5 anyway.

I hate it because I can never pick out 5 titles!

OK:

1) Kansas - Masque. Because it's simply great "Hard American Progressive Rock".

2) Yes - Tales from Topographic Oceans. It's 2 cd's and can offer more enjoyment still even yet now.

3) Marillion - Fugazi - it's prog with metal overtones and angry and weird and deep and complicated.

4) Thin Lizzy - Bad Reputation. Why? Why not? Do you want to fight?

5) Genesis - Trespass - because this is a simple as hell yet deep as the ocean album. Very very good stuff.

Regards,

Dave

LOLOLO


Could you toss that audio book over when you get finished with it. I may have to build a raft to go get David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust album you left off your list. Great album

I guess my 5 would go like this

Renaissance- Live at Carnegie Hall

Allman Bros- Live at the Filmore

Kansas Masque

Carl Filipiak-Blue Entrance

Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon
