Ok age old question this.....
your stuck on a desert island, by some strange twist of fate there is a nice hi fi system there with unlimited power supply and a cd player.....but gosh dang it, there is something wrong with it, and it will ONLY let you play FIVE cd's out of your entire collection.
No apart from trying to fix it or anything else that i bet some smart alec will think of, what FIVE cd's would you listen too?
Double cd's or multipule cd's of any number count as the number of discs in the set and not as one.....so for instance a double disc set is 2

ALSO these have to be discs you can buy, not that you have burnt yourself.

1. Jeff Waynes Musical Highlights of War of The Worlds (1 disc)
2. Jeff Who? - Death Before Disco
3. Jean Michel Jarre - Images The Best Of Jean Michel Jarre
4. Metallica - The Black Album
5. Garbage - Version 2.0

In no particular order...

Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible
Blur - Modern Life Is Rubbish
Radiohead - OK Computer
Stereophonics - Word Gets Around
James - The Best Of

Also in no particular order....
Jeff Buckley - Grace
Stone Roses - Stone Roses
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of The Moon
The Beatles - White Album
Blind Melon - Blind Melon

My Chemical Romance - the Black Parade
Fall Out Boy - Infinity On High
Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree
Green Day - American Idiot

Fifth is a toss up between the greatest hits of Nirvana, and the greastest hits of The Offspring. Too close to call.

As ever, in no particular order...

Meat Puppets - Meat Puppets II
Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
Mozart Requiem K626 (Sony Classical - SBK89288)
The Smiths - Singles
Beck - Mutations

Radiohead / OK Computer
Steely Dan / Katy Lied
Foo Fighters / One by One
Donald Fagen / The Nightfly
Snow Patrol / Final Straw


Well, that's todays list - it could all change by tomorrow!

tim

Blur-Parklife
The White Stripes-Icky Thump
Ash-Intergalactic Sonic 7s
Bromheads Jacket-Dits From The Commuter Belt
The Beach Boys-Pet Sounds


Thats probably nothing like my list would be if I had some proper time to think though.
