What 5 CD's from your current collection...
What 5 CD's from your current collection...
As an addition to the "What are people listening to now" thread I thought an interesting question would be (this may include some old classics instead of just new music):
What are your favorite 5 CD albums from your collection? Forget You tube, mp3's etc. My question is... If you knew you were going to be stranded on a deserted island for a month and you could only take 5 commercial CD albums from your current collection along with your solar powered CD player... what would those albums be?
I've been thinking a lot about this and it's difficult to narrow it down to 5 so I think it will be interesting to hear your answers while I am still making up my mind.

Checker, you really are an Elvis fan. I'm from the "Home of the King" and I like him too! If you ever come to Hua Hin bring some of your collection as I'd love to hear it!
Still thinking about mine... I was tempted to pick my 5 favorite Jimmy Buffet albums (like your Elvis albums) but I think I would need some variety if it was the only thing I had to listen to for a month.

Howay the Lads!!!!
Throwing out the last 3 to get it down to 5 was painful, but here's my choices:
Bryan Adams - So Far So Good
Eric Clapton - Unplugged
Meat Loaf - Bat Out of Hell
Police - Singles - Every Breath You Take
Thirty Eight Special - Rock and Roll Strategy
(also rans or honorable mentions - Jimmy Buffet, Son of a Son of a Sailor - Moody Blues, Other Side of Life - Dr. Hook, Greatest Hits (and more) - Little Feat, Let it Roll and many many more)
This was harder than I thought. Guess I should have made it 10 albums!

Eliades Ochoa - Tribute to the Cuarteto Patria
