What Would Be Your Desert Island CD?

[Reggie29]

Ok, you are shipwrecked on a desert island, you salvaged a CD player and you only have enough time to pick one disc.

What would it be?

No compilations, Boxed sets, Best of or Greatest Hits etc.

Multiple disc albums ok, i.e. Physical Graffiti etc.

This was a poll of the top 100 desert island discs on a Sydney FM station.

Do you agree / disagree with the list?

Meatloaf #1??????? WTF? This disc would make me vomit profusely and that is something you don't need to be doing when water is a treasured commodity. Dark Side is an all time masterpiece but songs about insanity, lonliness and aging would hardly be appropriate in this situation.

I would personally go with a double album 'cause 2 is better than 1. Right now i'd pick PG or Exile on Main Street but in an hour i might pick something totally different.

That was my reaction too.

PG was my pick too, Down By The Seaside seemed apt!

[Fresh Garbage]

I would take either #46 or #96

[59LesPaul]

[Puck Slapping Maple Sucker]

HOTH will always be my desert island cd from Zeppelin, but I would take "Rocks" by Aerosmith over anything else.

.....because it is...

c'mon man;you're slackin' off!!

[Puck Slapping Maple Sucker]

c'mon man;you're slackin' off!!

and I'll make damn sure it's the quadraphonic vinyl, because it does as well!

One of the most kick-ass hard rock recordings ever made.

[DoubleNecker]

I still haven't heard Rocks....I'm starting to think hard rock isn't that great anymore >_>

Fuckin' thing sounds great doesn't it?

You have a Quadraphonic system? No shit?

It even sounds great in conventional stereo.

Get it and listen to it.

Now.

Desert island = reggae; I would need some Bob Marley! "Live" or "Burnin" if we can't do live albums.

It's amazing, but I don't have the system though. Just conventional. I wish I had the quadra version of Wings.

[DoubleNecker]

I have it, just haven't listened.

This was the very first real true rock record I ever heard! my older brothers would play it over and over.....lol

Same story like that for '59 as well.

I hope to inluence someone like that someday.

[Bustle In My Hedgerow]

Shit... Meatloaf over DSOTM?

I'd probably pick between

2. DSOTM

... hey there has to be SOMETHING smokable of the island

10. LZ IV

35. White Album

84. Jagged Little Pill

[Stargroves Tangie]

PG would definitely be my pick- never get tired of it.

BTW, who is Cold Chisel? I see one of their albums was #4 & they had a few more on the list as well.

[Dzldoc]

Sooo! Relaxing

[59LesPaul]

I have it, just haven't listened.

Check it out when you can;its' definetly worth it.

That was this:

I discovered Rocks on my own....

[Bustle In My Hedgerow]

No compilations, Boxed sets, Best of or Greatest Hits etc.

I remember in the very early 80’s (long before CD’s and CD Box Sets), a local radio station in Columbus did a number called “Taken It to the Streets”.

Each week, they would ask people different questions, then play them back on the air.

One week, the question was “If you were stranded on a deserted island and could only have one album to listen too, what would it be?”

Mine was Physical Graffiti, since it was a double album.

Double the pleasure and many, many great songs!!!
