What 10 Albums?

[irocfan]

Sort of a desert island discs scenario here - which 10 albums would you choose as the only 10 albums in your, indefinite, time of being marooned? You can, if you would rather choose a couple of complete album sides instead of a single album (compilation albums consisting of various artistes are not allowed!).


1: Rush – 2112

2: Evanescence – Fallen

3: Scorpions – World Wide Live

4: Iron Maiden – Number of the Beast

5: Rondò Veneziano – Venice in Peril

6: Def Leppard – Pyromania

7: AC/DC – Back in Black

8: Metallica – ‘black album’

9: Black Sabbath – Heaven and Hell

10: Rainbow – The Very Best of Rainbow


I’ll probably switch some albums or album sides if I did this tomorrow but it’ll do me for now

[S100HP]

Good game

1) Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American
2) War of the worlds

The above two were easy, I normally choose war of the worlds as my only album on a desert island.

3) Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
4) Slipknot - Self Titled
5) Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
6) NOFX - I heard they suck live
7) Queen - Live at Wemberly
8) Led Zeppelin - Mothership
9) Mad Caddies - Rock the plank
10) Ghost - Prequelle
11) Nightwish - Endless forms most beautiful

It's 11...sue me.

In no particular order and off the top of my head:

1. Promises by the boxer rebellion
2. Big TV by white lies
3. Hup by the wonder stuff
4. Screamadelica by primal scream
5. Dummy by Portishead
6. Moon safari by air
7. De-tuned by purple penguin
8. Life by inspiral carpets
9. Geogaddi by boards of Canada
10. An end has a start by editors

A million others could be added but honourable mentions to my alternative top 10 (cheating I know )

1. Given to the wild by the Maccabees
2. Lifeforms by future sound of London
3. Songs from the big chair by tears for fears
4. Royal blood By royal blood
5. The stone roses by the stone roses
6. The queen is dead by the smiths
7. Xx by the xx
8. Protection by massive attack
9. The resistance by muse
10. Simple things by zero 7

Good list and not dissimilar to mine.... might swap Making Movies for Communiqué and I'd need Desire by Dylan, maybe take Chic out.

I'd miss Supertramp.

I'll trade you Lambchop, Is a Woman. The deal is you must listen as I am about to do with Purple Penguin. (Try Besnard Lakes, just for fun!)
