I'm loving the best album of the 00's thread. But let's really get down to it. What one album/set would you recommend to someone on the proverbial deserted isle. Let's take off the gloves, now.
-
The Rolling Stones 40 Licks
-
The Fall: "This nations saving grace"
-
Death: "Human"
-
Abraxas
-
FSGFSGFSG - AYCHYACHYACHYA
-
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
-
Another cup by Yusuf Islam
-
Lynyrd Skynyrd,
One more for from the road.
...if it's only gonna be one album I'm at least gonna make it a double album!
-
Another cup by Yusuf Islam
you know, i think he used to have a singing career under another name. I'm sure it's shitty compared to his Islam days. ::)

his older stuff is AMAZING AND LEGENDARY BUT it would only make me somewhat sad
"another saturday night" makes me think about my dateless weekends when i lived in NYC
"moonshadow" makes me think of my parents when they came to this country
plus, I want to sound somewhat hip/relevant by choosing his stuff after the conversion rather than his "popular" stuff
-
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
I thought of that one also.
-
Der Ring des Nibelungen by Wagner and a close second third would obviously be Loreena Mckennitt The Book of Secrets as well as Mediaeval Babes.
But in reality I cannot choose as my music list is endless and it would certainly not be fair to place one above the other as something as complex as this matter is not comparatively possible given the circumstance at hand.
If I were on a desert island as opposed to a deserted Island, I would probably long after George Frideric Handel, Water Music hoping to lessen the misery of a parched throat.
-
Astral Weeks by Van the man.
-
Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet
-
GnR- Appetite for Destruction
-
Pearl Jam - TEN. Best album ever made. Close this thread.

We all now know which decade you are stuck in which is what you consider your "high point".
I wonder, do you still wear your Eddie Bauer flannel and Duck Head shorts during the weekdays?
-
Very good choice, Purple Aki.
I'd consider OK Computer by Radiohead, as well.
Another one of my favorites is Obscured by Clouds--Pink Floyd.

Please take the Floyd album......Radiohead = whiny box of turds
-
Achtung Baby- U2
Best album ever made.

Not even their best album......I'd go with Joshua Tree.
-
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
I have to go with this, too, mainly because it's a studio double-album with no filler from the best hard rock band ever.
Live albums are basically "greatest hits" and shouldn't be included.

I HATE live albums....awful shit. Very few exceptions.
The guitarist for Thin Lizzy was on "That heavy metal show" today.....he looks like Richard Branson. Seemed like a cool guy.
-

Joshua tree is great, but just too normal. achtung is rock and roll like never done before, and it has yet to be matched.
-
Astral Weeks by Van the man.
I love this album.
I'd probably go for Dylan's Blood on the Track or Van's The Healing Game.
-
Astral Weeks by Van the man.
Seriously great album. Van came through Toronto recently and hit Massey Hall playing that entirely right through. Wow. He never does shit like that.
/still have my '93 tour sweatshirt

I hate Debussey is in the asylum, with no computer access he could add to the thread. I'll try.
-
a few choices:
Tea for the Tillerman - Cat Stevens (pre Yusuf Islam)
Teaser and the Firecat - Cat Stevens
A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean - Jimmy Buffett
A1A - Jimmy Buffett

God dammit,I picked a Skynyrd album{and I know how to spell Skynyrd correctly!} as my desert album >:(
-
Joni Mitchell Miles of Aisles
I thought you would be more of an Indigo Girls kinda gal. 8)
-
no Joni is it, she's a musician's musician. Clouds (Both Sides Now) live and A Case Of You (Live) far outshine the Indigo Girls.
-
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Excellent choice.
-
The Wild, The Innocent, and The E Street Shuffle - Bruce Springsteen
-

I really couldnt chose between Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby , shit chuck in Rattle and Hum and there is A Trifecta of 3 amazing albums there , U2 at there finest across those 3 albums combined.
And to be honest I dont think I could ever chose just 1 album , way to hard.
-

Nah,but he could sure sing from the heart 8)
