Your deserted island album?

[J.DavisNJ]

You are traveling to a deserted island and plan on spending the rest of your life there. Which album would you take? It doesn't have to be metal, whatever!

For me:

I listen to various types of music, but discovered this gem a couple of years ago and it has fought it's way up to my #1 album. It's hard not to feel the same pain, joy, happiness that Buckley exudes on this album. It's a masterpiece in my opinion. It's very sad how he passed away as well. It's amazing that one studio album left such a legacy behind.

What is yours?

Hmmmm good question...which album I´d choose. DAMN, it´s not easy! Gimme some minutes

 

[Sickan]

Some Meshuggah album, then I would have something to figure out for the rest of my life

Hahaha good answer

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

The Empire Strikes Back soundtrack, the single CD version from the 1994 trilogy compilation. No question.

 

[Felix Neumann]

I would probably choose the WHITE ALBUM of The Beatles.



Why? Because of the multitude of different genres. Like for example:

* Psychedelia (Glass Onion, Piggies, Long Long Long)
* Rock ’n’ Roll (Back In The USSR, Birthday),
* Blues (Yer Blues, Why Don't We Do It In The Road, Revolution 1),
* Progressive Rock (Happiness Is A Warm Gun)
* Country (Rocky Raccoon, Don't Pass Me By),
* Folk (Blackbird, Mother Nature's Son, The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill),
* Ragtime (Honey Pie),
* Reggae (Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da),
* Hard Rock (Helter Skelter, Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey),
* Balladen (Julia, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Dear Prudence, Martha My Dear, I Will, Sexy Sadie, Cry Baby Cry, Good Night) und eine
* Avantgardistische Toncollage (Revolution 9).

It covers everything made so far (1968) IMO. AND it´s a double album

I love it!

Vince DiCola - Transformers 86 Movie OST

Hell fucking yea. I love this album to death. I have all the tracks from the extreeeeeeemely rare "Til All Are One" version. I downloaded them years ago because the album is impossible to find to actually buy, otherwise I gladly would.

Btw, Chryst Krispies, I love your avatar. "YOU BLEW MY COVAH!!!"

 

[KeithReyn]

either Pink Floyd's 'Dark side of the moon' or Type O Negative's 'October Rust'

 

[IronMaiden15]

Rush - Signals

Rush is awesome. YYZ blew me away when I was just getting into playing and writing music. And that pic in your sig is awesome. Coma of Souls would be another potential desert island album. Great from start to finish.

I was so impressed when I saw the video of To-Mera covering Autobot / Decepticon Battle live. Wish there was a better recording of their version.
