The new ridiculous "Desert Island" album thread! Rules are in first post.

[Greeny]

Reflecting my current mood, I now want to takes something a little more primal:

Siouxsie and the Banshees 'Once Upon a Time: The Singles'.

After a day worth thinking about this, I'm taking Bob Dylan's Oh mercy... And I'll hide the bootleg series album -tell tale signs -that goes with it in my underwear. (Is underwear aloud ?) . Maybe we could all go to the same desert island, to have more to listen to. (We would definitively need underwear)

Okay, i am gonna have to say this is what changed me. Hearing God of Thunder when i was 5 or 6 years old. I don`t like what was done to Kiss after Ace Frehley left the very first time but this is one of my favourite Live Albums. Great rock`n roll songs on this one!!

The way they dressed and their makeup and Gene Simmons spit blood and fire, and their now cheesy KISS meets the Phantom movie gave everyone the illusion that they were really not human.

WOW, now thats the bomb.

WOW, now thats the bomb.

I Looove it. It's all soooo gooood. It WOW's me everytime I listen to it. Monk is in his own league...he makes time wait for him...fricken genius!

before i change my mind

This album is an essential. One of my faves. That and the first Catholics album.

TOTY should be listened to over and over and over again until you feel funny. Then give it a long break - The next listen is an mind opener.

without question.

I've looked at this thread a coupla times.

Each time I think "oh sheesh! only one?!?!"

I assume most people have the same problem as me - even my favourite albums, if I could only have one, would probably get on my nerves eventually (faves, that I'm not choosing, include such things as Night at the Opera, Out of the Blue, Irish Tour 74, Made In Japan, Hounds of Love, loads, and loads... etc...)

I've nearly even replied with "if I can only take one, I'll take a BBC sound effects record and use it as an ash-tray - if I'm gonna get stuck with one, I'd rather have none..."

BUT, finally, I realise I can choose one. It's not my favourite album, but I know I could listen to it over and over again... It fulfills many things I want out of music, and it still has loads of stuff hidden in it that I haven't found yet:

The Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East

EDIT: I probably ought to listen to it again soon then!

The Band - The Last Walz

If I had to go rock, I think I might agree. My favorite band.

The Band - The Last Walz

Another grand listen. I think MoO is influenced by them indirectly.
