I generally think of such items as vacuous- who is going to read this, what are the chances that they actually know me & who really cares?- but I was reading a small interview which featured the burning question: What 10 CDs would you want to have with you should you happen to be stranded on a desert island. It made me wonder what I would prefer to have with me should such an event occur. It's really a hard question to answer with the limitation of only ten, and it is very likely that I'll go over, but here goes.
Charles Mingus- The Black saint and The Sinner Lady
Carla Bley- Social Studies
Cafe Tecuba- Tiempo Transcurrido
XTC- Drums and Wires
Habib Koite and Bamada- Foley
Brazil Classics 3- Forro etc.
Shooglenifty- Solar Shears
Sonny Rollins- Silver City
Natraj- Meet Me Anywhere
Sufjan Stevens- Greetings From Michigan
Issa Bagayogo- Tassoumakan
Finjan- Crossing Selkirk Avenue
The Rough Guide to South African Gospel
Now aren't you really glad that you took the time to read this? Me too.
P.S. How in the world did I forget The Who's Quadrophenia and The Stone's Exile on Main Street?
