Yes, I´m bored.

Mine would be, probably:

Sticky Fingers, Abbey Road, 1999 (recently I´ve thinking to switch to Dirty Mind)... maybe Murmur?, Vinicius en vivo con Toquiño y Maria Creutza (1970), Highway 61 Revisited

fuck the cd's shit like that isnt even cool to talk about man..

my 5 essentials.....


let's see.

Prince - SOTT
the Beatles - White Album
The Cure - Disintegration
Tori Amos - Boys for Pele
Radiohead - OK computer


Tried to go for some longer albums, since i'll only have 5 to listen to

my autographed, limited edition reissue of swans' "the burning world"
my extremely out of print tragic mulatto 'best of'
my equally out of print sandra bernhard 'without you i'm nothing' CD

these would be my big three, just because they'd be so hard to replace.

Anxiety said:

good point...

Thinking of a couple things that would be hard to replace:


my autographed Tori Amos "strange little girls", and my Disintegration vinyl picture disc.

Street Songs - Rick James
Hall Of Fame I. - Steve Arrington's Hall Of Fame
Mothership Connection - Parliament
Only Built For Cuban Linx - Raekwon
Whatcha Gonna Do For Me - Chaka Khan

I wouldnt fetch any CDs because they can be replaced! Id take the records tho!

Tapestry by Carole King
Zoom 12" single by the Commodores
Jackie Moore 12" of This Time Baby
Purple Rain
The Family album

The first 3 are of huge sentimental value, so Id have to take them. Purple Rains my all time favourite album and Im amidst a mad love affair with the Family right now, which is pretty rare on vinyl.

I should also add that my house hasnt been on fire, but the ceiling caved in above me and those are what I took!

4 of my Jackie Wilson cds...I can buy all those other CDs anywhere. When you finally find Jackie you have to hold on to him.

I'd squeeze in Dangerous as well

Here are my 5

1. Abbey Road - The Beatles
2. Aja - by Steely Dan.
3. Purple Rain - Prince
4. Off the wall.- Michael Jackson.
5. Songs in the key of life - Stevie Wonder.

I wouldnt go back in for any cds.

CinisterCee said:

well, whatevs. the three i listed aren't available on precious vinyl, so they're the only sound recordings i have of those particular albums.

and to get even MORE technosympathizer on yez, this is why iPods and mp3 players are important...if my place burned down, all i gotta do is grab my mp3 player and i'll at least be able to keep listening to just about all the music i own. small consolation, but a significant one.

Co sign

Id take my ipod sooner than Id take my CDs, and Id only take stuff that I really couldnt get again...like my mothers worn out, beaten up, scratched copy of Tapestry with a torn cover.

Erykah Badu "Mama's Gun"
Prince "The Hits 2"
EWF "The Essential EWF"
Janet "Velvet Rope"
Madonna "Erotica"

my bag of mp3 disks (90% of my music collection is on those)
lovesexy - prince
lovers rock - sade
electrik ladyland - jimi hendrix
vivid - living colour

oh FUCK i forgot sade!!! i couldnt live without her greatest hits. SADE RULES!

i had a dream about her last night where i was trying to go on a date with her and found out she was bisexual. random i know.

random, but hot

Anxiety said:

I think he means that you get your ass out of the house and forget the cd's.

to rephrase it, my desert island picks are:

Abbey Road
Songs In the Key of Life
Emancipation--it's long at least!
Bach's Brandenberg Concertos
Ellington Live at Newport

and I'd be so god damned sick of them all I'd want to kill myself.
