You would be on a different island.

 

Well, seeing as Eric is always on a different planet...

 

Still manage to get hold of his beer discount card when it's really needed.

 

Will be back with some proper input on music choices later, still have 3,500 Honeymoon snaps to sort out and all the Golf Course pics for Tokes to post first

Nope. She's the greatest living female singer songwriter.

 

Some people's choices above are so achingly predictable for a football forum.

Wondered how long it would be before someone came up with the achingly predictable but nonetheless pathetically snide "everyone else's choice is ****" comment. Not long as it happens. Well done you.

Good thread.

 

Neutral Milk Hotel - In the aeroplane over the sea

Decemberists - Her Majesty

Ludovico Einaudi - In a time lapse

Richard & Linda Thompson - I want to see the bright lights tonight

David Sylvian - Brilliant Trees

 

Ask me in 2 months and at least 3 of those will be displaced from my pool of ~20 special albums.

 

Oddly enough, some other contributors have picked albums or artists my top ~100. So as a service to this community, I've helpfully edited down their posts.

 

Perhaps when we get to the island, we can meet up for a music sesh?

 

"Dummy" - Portishead

"Dark Side of the Moon" - Pink Floyd

 

The Cardigans - Long gone before daybreak

 

Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde

Neil Young - After the Goldrush

 

Air - Moon Safari

I didn't say their choices were bad? And anyway I was only referring to a couple of them. To be fair there's a lot of good stuff on this thread.

 

Predictable doesn't have to mean it's bad. It's predictable that Lambert will score a penalty when he steps up to take one.

1) Rage Against The Machine's eponymous debut.

 

I simply wouldn't exist as me without it. Massively influential.

 

2) Appetite For Destruction - Guns n Roses

 

My gateway rock album that doesn't suck today.

 

3) Different Class - Pulp

 

This album and I met at a perfect time. I have a lot of time for Pulp, generally.

 

4) R.A.P Music - Killer Mike

 

Hardcore G sh!t.

 

5) One Beat - Sleater Kinney

 

Dunno if this is their best album, but it's the one I'd take.

The Jam - Going Underground

 

There is no such album - Goodness knows how many infractions that is worth.

 

LOL!!!! Realised that after I posted and I left it to see how long it would last... also quoted by Bletch further down the thread .. it should of course be the incomparable 'All Mod Cons'.
