Okay, If you could only listen to 7 albums for the rest of your life what would they be? Only two criteria, A.) Double Albums (I.E. Beatles - White Album) counts as one B. ) No box sets (I.E. Jimmy Buffett - Boats, Beaches, Bars, & Ballads) Here are my 7: 1.) Meatloaf - Bat Out Of Hell 2.) Paul Simon - Still Crazy After All These Years 3.) Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run 4.) Steely Dan - Aja 5.) Jimmy Buffett - Coconut Telegraph 6.) Billy Joel - 52nd Street 7.) Gordon Lightfoot - Gord's Gold
In no particular order.... 1. Kiss - Kiss 2. Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime 3. Def Leppard - On Through The Night (their first) 4. Blackfoot - Strikes 5. AC/DC - Back In Black 6. Bon Jovi - Bon Jovi (their first) 7. Iced Earth - Live In Athens (double album so sue me)
Got Mindcrime at the Moore here with me at work right now which is a boxed set of parts 1 and 2 recorded live
No order Hank Williams Jr -Greatest Hits Vol 1 Frank Sinatra - Reprise The Very Good Years Elvis -1968 NBC TV Special Glen Miller - In the Digital Mood Johnny Cash - Live at Folsom Prison Mercy ME -10 John Mellencamp - The Best I Could Do Most greastet hits, but thats what I would take Hard to pick 7. I would like to get a Ray Charles, BB King Greatest hits on there. Others would by Lynyrd Skynyrd, CCR, Def Leppard /AC-DC for Heavy.
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gold & Platinum Van Halen - 1982 Fleetwood Mac - Rumors Heart - Heart Greatest Hits Rod Stewart -Greatest Hits AC DC - Back in Black Janet Jackson Rhythm nation (I think)
The following is a list of albums I would always want accessible, also in no particular order Transformer - Lou Reed Steam Powered Aereoplane - John Hartford Kind of Blue - Miles Davis The Mission - Ennio Morricone Show Some Emotion - Joan Armatrading Will The Circle Be Unbroken - Various (attributed to the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, but they are the least memorable) Abraxas - Santana
Thanks. I know I made the rules. I figured I could listen to one album a day so each one would only get used about 52 times a year. If I had said 7 + 2 back up I would of added Steve Winwood - Arc Of A Diver and Bob Dylan - Blood On The Tracks. I was wondering if most of the choices people would make where those albums would relate in their lives. My album choices pretty much cover my high school to mid to late 20's. I can still rock out to "Paradise by the dashboard light" and I am in my mid 50's now. I just love how he was able to work the baseball references in and using Phil Rizzuto's announcing
I would take your two adds (and a couple from your original list). Heard an interview with a gentleman a few months ago, he was isolated for a number of months and only had 10 or so albums. By the end of his experience he couldn't listen to them anymore. He also picked "Kind Of Blue", and he said he eventually could listen to it again but he had to work at it. My selections are eclectic, but so is my life!
1. Rush-Power Windows 2. Queen-Jazz 3. A Day To Remember-What Separates Me From You 4. Van Halen-5150 5. The Cars-Heartbeat City 6. Cheap Trick-Live At Budokan 7. Coheed & Cambria-In Keeping Secrets of Slient Earth 3
1- Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon 2- Beatles - Abbey Road 3- Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack 4- The Magic Christian soundtrack 5- Concert for George (Harrison) tribute 6- Queen - A Night at the Opera 7- Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Donny Osmond)
