Title: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Brother Ragnarok on April 15, 2003, 02:53:38 PM Since I love making "Top whatever" lists, what five CD's would you have on that island, because you've discovered that palm tree has a CD drive and speakers in the coconuts.
Feel free not to respond because this is stupid and derivative. 1. Clutch - Pure Rock Fury 2. The Pogues - Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash 3. Devin Townsend - Terria 4. White Zombie - Astrocreep 2000 5. Tanglefoot - The Music In the Wood Brother R Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Pete B6K on April 15, 2003, 02:59:44 PM Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
Sick of it All - Built to Last Iggy & The Stooges - Raw Power Wesley Willis - Greatest Hits 2 Tracy Chapman - s/t It's pretty hard for me to make top 5 music lists, I'd feel more comfortable with liek a top 50 list, but right now those are the five I'm thinking would be best. Pete Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Evan3 on April 15, 2003, 03:33:14 PM 1) Batman Forever Soundtrack
2) Linkin Park Hybrid Theory 3) Green Day- Intl. Hits 4) Michelle Branch - Soul Room and 5) a tape recording of the Neverending Story, because it will be awhile til I am rescued and that damnm story never ends but if it has to be music 5) The Beatles White Album Post Edited (04-15-03 15:43) Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Fearless Freep on April 15, 2003, 03:38:02 PM Rush - "Power Windows"
Miles Davis - "Kind Of Blue" U2 - "War" John Patitucci - "Mistura Fina" Weather Report - "Heavy Weather" Post Edited (04-15-03 15:38) Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: The Burgomaster on April 15, 2003, 04:53:24 PM 1. My Aim is True - Elvis Costello
2. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd 3. Ramonesmania - The Ramones 4. Black Sabbath - The Ozzy Osbourne Years (3 cd set, so I cheated a little) 5. E O Bicho - O Bicho (a Brazilian cd) * * * * Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Scott0 on April 15, 2003, 09:59:29 PM An album or two of the Beatles is definitely required to keep sane on a deserted island. However, I feel that after hearing "Help!" or "Back in the USSR" for the nth time (yes, 'nth' is a word..... it's used in my crosswords) I would want to break the CD. My choices will need to be a little deviant from normal, and would probably mostly be "best of" CD's.
The Best of Fleetwood Mac Bach's Greatest Hits "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" Smashing Pumpkins Beatles "White Album" Best of Roy Orbison Sorry if the "best of" route is kind of a cop out, but it seems to be the only way I can really get all of what I really want. Kind of like trimming the fat off of lotsa sides of meat, and throwing the good stuff all into a processor to be the best of the best. Runners up include Michael Jackson, Radiohead, Bela Felck and the Flecktones, Ella Fitzgerald, and Frank Sinatra. In fact, I'd be real tempted to switch the Smashing Pumpkins with Sinatra. No offense to Billy, it's just... I mean, it's Sinatra. You can't beat that man's voice!!! Scottie Title: Re: Meaty CDs Post by: Andrew on April 15, 2003, 11:01:18 PM There are some CDs that are almost "greatest hits" collections all by themselves.
Def Leppard's "Hysteria" Billy Joel's "Stormfront" Mary Chapin Carpenter's "Come on Come on" The first Traveling Wilbury's album And, yes, a number of The Beatle's fit in here nicely If I get to pick among the greatest hits, then Blue Oyster Cult's "Workshop of the Telescopes" collection would be a definite. Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Brother Ragnarok on April 16, 2003, 02:20:01 AM Hm...I feel I should amend my list with a Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds record, either No More Shall We Part or the new Nocturama, but I don't know what I'd replace with either of those...
Dammit, this is harder than I thought. Brother R Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: tralallog on April 16, 2003, 02:32:16 AM pink floyd- wish you were here
saviour machine- legend part II in flames- colony iron maiden- a live dead one sonic youth- 1000 leaves Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Dolph Lundgren on April 16, 2003, 02:59:18 AM Great topic, Ragnarok. Here's mine:
1. Pearl Jam - Ten 2. Feeder - Polythene 3. Live - Throwing Copper 4. Coldplay - A Rush of Blood to the Head 5. Stone Temple Pilots - Core God, that was tougher than I thought. Of course I'd have to include a lot more, but that's my top 5. Nick Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Brother Ragnarok on April 16, 2003, 03:10:07 AM Holy s**t, someone else who knows about Saviour Machine! Very cool band. I only have Legend I, and now I guess I have a reason to get the second one.
Brother R Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: tralallog on April 16, 2003, 03:28:27 AM legend part two is easily one of the best albums i have ever heard...its so weird but yet amazing in its own way
part three is awesome too...but i think the second is still the best. both parts two and three blow the first one away. Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Vermin Boy on April 16, 2003, 07:03:46 AM "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliars" - The Firesign Theatre
"Mink Car" - They Might Be Giants "Prairie Home Invasion" - Jello Biafra & Mojo Nixon "History of the Bonzos" - The Bonzo Dog (Doo-Dah) Band Some Zappa (probably either Absolutely Free, We're Only In it for the Money, or Strictly Commercial) Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: raj on April 16, 2003, 09:13:33 AM Hmm,
Definitely a Beatles album, either the White Album or the Red or Blue "best of" early or later stuff. Pink Floyd "The Wall" (yeah, I'm cramming a lot of double albums in, so what) A Billy Holiday record, Beethoven's Ninth, possibly done by the Berlin Philharmonic (gotta get some different types of music in) and grab something from Muddy Waters, BB King, or Sonny Boy Williamson. Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Evan3 on April 16, 2003, 03:15:46 PM hmm, on further reflection, Nirvana's greatest hits would be nice on the island, I think by the end, you could really start relating to Cobain's insanity before u were rescued. Its also good music too.
Plus, screw Back and Mozart, as a history minor I can tell you that the best classical composer is Tchaikovsky, followed closely by Phillip Glass (which would also be a good CD for the island...) Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Andrew Crow on April 16, 2003, 04:20:28 PM Self-made Misfits compilation
Metallica - Master Of Puppets Shadows Fall - Of One Blood Slayer - Seasons In The Abyss self-made metal compilation Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Pete B6K on April 16, 2003, 07:05:53 PM Mr. Crow, that reminds me, I've been looking to get a Misfits record. I've heard a bunch of great songs, stuff like 'Die Die My Darling', 'Last Caress' and 'Halloween' are the ones I remember. What album would you reccommend as the best starting point with the Misfits?
Pete Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: systemcr4sh on April 16, 2003, 07:16:14 PM f**king right, They Might Be Giants are amazing.
I have so many cds I dunno how I could choose five but here goes: 1. Descendents - Milo Goes To College (There may be a lot better punk albums to come out of the 80's but this is my personal favorite) 2. They Might Be Giants - Severe Tire Damage (Can't compete with all my favorite TMBG songs played live, I was thinking of the 2-Cd 20 Year compilation that they put out but decided against it) 3. The Vandals - The Quickening (probably my favorite vandals cd) 4. The Blood Brothers - Burn Piano Island Burn (New this year, but easily ranks up there, i listen to it over and over. Amazing) 5. There is just too many to narrow it down to one more maybe Send More Paramedics or the new Gatsby's American Dream. I really can't think of only one more. Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: Pete B6K on April 16, 2003, 08:57:29 PM Can't believe I forgot Send More Paramedics. Pure genius. Gonna finally get to see them live I hope on May 4th.
I think we're only away of They Might Be Giants over here as the band that made the Malcolm in the Middle theme. Same with Nerf Herder and Buffy. My personal favourite Vandals record is by far Live Fast Diarrhea. Power Moustache is amazing. Pete Title: Re: Stealing from Burgomaster, 5 CD's Post by: systemcr4sh on April 16, 2003, 09:02:06 PM Yeah thats also one of the best vandals album. Send more paramedics are amazing. :D
Some of nerf herders stuff is great. |
