I think my lifeboat sank while I was dithering. But:

Bob Dylan -- Blood on the Tracks
Muddy Waters -- Hard Again
The Grateful Dead -- American Beauty

(I know deadheads will shoot me for selecting a studio album, but they never got the vocal harmonies that good live....)

Great call on the Matt Good disk. Whats a couple of your faves? I don't know the names but 1, 4 and 6 rule. This is in my top 5 disks of 2004 for sure.

Yeah it's definately my fave Matt Good of all time... I debate daily if it's my first or second of 2004... but my loyalty to tth will prevent me from ever admitting it.

Faves include... ummm.... It's been a while, put out your lights, blue skies, empty road... pretty much every song I think.

Nice picks! Recovering the Sattelites is a great record. I don't think it ever got the respect it deserved.

North Mississippi Allstars- Hill Country Review-Live from Bonnaroo
Drive By Truckers- Toss up between Decoration Day and The Dirty South
Robert Randolph and the Family Band- Unclassified.

[Chris Tanz]

Queensryche-Operation Mindcrime
Sarah Mclachlan-Rarities, B-Sides and others

ahhhhhhh, sweet Operation Mindcrime.

Sarah, on the other hand, started to lose me with Rarities etc. She kept rereleasing material instead of writing new stuff, and by the time she wrote some new stuff, I didn't care anymore.

My three:

Tom Waits -- Swordfishtrombones [or Mule Variations?]
The Watchmen -- In the Trees
Sarah Harmer -- You Were Here

ask me again in five minutes.

Pink Floyd- "The Wall"...I'd prefer Dark side, but the wall is longer
Zeppelin- "Houses of the Holy"...Physical was taken...Houses has slow & fast
How about soundtracks..."Almost Famous"

Pink Floyd- "The Wall"...I'd prefer Dark side, but the wall is longer

I woulda picked that one, but if you're gonna be trapped on a desert island it might lead to suicide. Especially teamed up with Blood on the Tracks....

That album has got to be one of the greatest sustained songwriting exercises going....

[Lizard King]

I forgot -- no mixed CDs. Ignorance of the rules is no excuse. LizardKing, you're shark bait. And Opiated, Shamu takes your left arm for failing to read the instructions carefully.

The idea for this comes from a radio appearance by the Hip in '89 where the interviewer posed a similar question. Just for interest, here's their picks of 15 years ago:

Gord S: Exile on Main Street, Never Mind the Bollocks, "the Clash's first album" (did he mean the UK release of The Clash?).
Robby: Layla and Other Love Songs, Blow by Blow, Sticky Fingers
Paul: Exile on Main Street, Infidels (Dylan)
Johnny: Diamond Dogs (Bowie), The Last Waltz, and Dr. Feelgood by Motley Crue .... no comment ....
Gord D: Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out, Free Live (Free, I guess), Tim (The Replacements)

I like Paul's choice, as it was my first Dylan album. Now I gotta think about my choices....

Im shark bait just because you forgot to put it in your rules! If I go down your coming with me! :rambo:

I would take 3 DMB albums just so nobody else could have them.

[Gov'tMule]

I would take 3 DMB albums just so nobody else could have them.

Please, take them ALL so no one else has to.

[tragicallymike]

Let me guess...you are one of those people who cant stand when bands get too popular so you jump on the " I hate them because alot of people love them and they sell out all their concerts" bandwagon. "Now let me push (insert random-not so well known band) on you because i discovered em"

I would take 3 DMB albums just so nobody else could have them.

Please, take them ALL so no one else has to.
