Reggie29 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 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? http://www.vega953.com.au/site/music/deser..._countdown.aspx Led Zeppelin 10. IV 46. Physical Graffiti 62. II 78. Houses Of The Holy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virginia Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Desert island = reggae; I would need some Bob Marley! "Live" or "Burnin" if we can't do live albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing, but I don't have the system though. Just conventional. I wish I had the quadra version of Wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedZep4Ever Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 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. 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!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
