If you could take only five albums with you to a desert island for a year, what would they be?
Welcome to my eclectic jungle.
- Radiohead - OK Computer
- It is a sublimely constructed piece that seamlessly fits each song together. Nothing is quite as brilliant in form from the 1990’s save Ladies and Gentlemen… by Spiritualized.
- Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
- Because I have a penchant for space rock this is the source and still moves me. I almost cannot bear listening to any of the tracks unless in the company of all the others.
- Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
- This is the birth of the cool. If we mix blues and bop, this is the origin of it all. A sick lineup made something with depth and it’s so damn chill.
- Meshuggah - Catch 33
- I need heavy music and nothing is as abstract, strange, and mesmerizing as this one. Great for those really late nights where exhaustion becomes the best narcotic one could intake.
- Neville Brothers - Live on Planet Earth
- This is a funky zydeco with all the right fixins’ for a soulful New ‘Awlins music gumbo. These guys bring the soul, the funk, and the party all at once.
And that’s just what I would bring today!
So what would you bring with you?
Not tagging anyone in particular, but I would be interested to see what you think!
