So yes, a poll for all to read...
After my slight rant on "BoobGate" a few days back, I thought to myself, what would be the ten recordings that I would need in order to survive a catastrophic bout of isolation (desert island? stranded in the moutains? took the right turn at Alberquerque?)?
I'm still compiling the master list, but I thought I'd put it to all of you: what albums, think all of you, that you couldn't live without.
It's like buttah. I'm all verklempt.
DISCUSS.

I keep seing the band Extreme... I never cared much for them or that record III sides to every story. Kinda funny to keep seeing that one pop up... I have not thought about that record in years!
Posted by Mark on 02-07-2004 at11:42:
I have all the Extreme CD's, but III Sides is light years ahead of all their other stuff. I like the music and the lyrics are some of the best committed to record.

I guess if you had something against "hair metal" in general, you wouldn't like Extreme. But listen carefully to the music and the message, and you'll find that they ain't no "hair metal" band.

Simon and Garfunkel - "Bookends"
Paul Simon - "There Goes Rhymin' Simon"
The Beatles - "Beatles For Sale"
DA - "Darn Floor Big Bite"
