Companion thread
This is sort of inline with the last post. Oh, and great suggestions everybody. At some point I am going to listen to all of your suggestions on iTunes. Except for Nookies first couple of suggestions, Glowie's Ryan and Breezy's Kellie Nosepicker.
So Michelle and I were talking last night about our favorite all time albums. We said to name our top ten which in reality we had about 20 albums each in our top ten. This led us to the game of...If you were stranded on an island for the rest of your life, which 10 albums would you want with you. So what 10 albums do rate as the best 10 ever in your mind. And not any "Best of"
Mine in no particular order:
AC/DC--Back in Black
Led Zeppelin--Led Zeppelin IV
Billy Joel--Glass Houses
Melissa Etheridge--Brave and Crazy
Fleetwood Mac--Rumours
Michael Jackson--Off the Wall
Guns N Roses--Appetite for Destruction
No Doubt--Tragic Kingdom
Big and Rich--Horse of a Different Color
Dixie Chicks--Home or Fly, either one. I guess I would have to pick Home.

What no Journey?!!!!!!!!!
I don't know that what would rank as the "10 best" would be the same as which 10 I would want to be stuck with.
This would take some major thought, which I am not in the mood to do right now, but I thought I should let you know that of your top 10, I own/have heard only 1. Except you got the name of the album wrong, I believe. I'll let you figure it out. *grin*
Duh. As soon as I went down the list I saw it. Edited and fixed. :)
Good girl. :) And yes, I love that album, too. Don't know if it would be in my top 10, but it's a good one, for sure.
Can't I just take my iRiver with all my CD's on it?
Thank you. That's helpful in my quest to find new music to enjoy.
*walks thru blog in red high heels*
I was helpful yesterday, remember? *giggle*
Since my blog moderator is on maternity leave Breezy, I myself will give you your final warning. One more Pickler reference and you'll be deleted. *stomp*
Gah, I hate this. I'll post. Others will bring up better choices and I'll feel I failed. Let's start that fun cycle! In not much of a particular order....
1. INXS...Welcome to Wherever You Are
2. U2...The Joshua Tree
3. INXS...Kick
4. Pearl Jam...Ten
5. The Killers...Hot Fuss
6. Stone Temple Pilots...Purple
7. The Cranberries...Everybody else is doing it
8. Barenaked Ladies...Stunt
9. Smashing Pumpkings...Siamese Dream
10. get ready to laugh: Prince...Purple Rain
Oh, and I would love to listen to about 1/3 of your selections, carey. Fleetwood Mac, Melissa Etheridge and Billy Joel are all in my top 50.
Oooooh, very good albums, Kim. Some of them I forgot about and will look into again. *smooch*
I like Journey.
ooops, I just re-read my list & see I made the pumpkins into pumpkings.
yikes. These are always tough. Some of my ten would probably change all the time...
1. Fleetwood Mac--The Very Best Of (greatest hits albums rule!)
2. Bruce Springsteen--Born to Run
3. Nirvana--(can I pick a box set??? *sigh*) Nevermind... no... Unplugged... no... self-titled
4. Ani Difranco--Imperfectly (soooooo hard to choose just one)
5. Pearl Jam--Rearviewmirror (thank goodness they put out a greatest hits album!)
6. Ryan Star--Songs From The Eye Of An Elephant (you're really missing out because of your personal issues. shame.)
7. Stage--self-titled
8. Kenny Chesney--Be As You Are (Songs From An Old Blue Chair)
9. Guns N Roses--Greatest Hits (yay for Greatest Hits albums!)
10. I can't pick a tenth because I'm afraid... I'll be back with one in a bit
I'll have to actually think about this one. I'll be back.
1. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
2. Keep The Faith - Bon Jovi
3. Crossroad - Bon Jovi
4. These Days - Bon Jovi
5. Crush - Bon Jovi
6. Bounce - Bon Jovi
7. Have A Nice Day - Bon Jovi
8. U218 Singles - U2
9. The Best of Hootie & The Blowfish 1993 to 2003
10. Some dancy mix thing I can shake my booty to.
Okay, if I can't do compilations or "Best of...", this is really hard. But I'll give it a shot.
In no particular order:
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers--Damn the Torpedoes
Green Day--American Idiot
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band--The River
Radiohead--OK Computer
The Clash--London Calling
Alice Cooper--Killer
The Rolling Stones--Exile on Main Street
The Beatles--Revolver
The Foo Fighters--The Color and the Shape/There Is Nothing Left to Lose/In Your Honor (sorry, I can't decide)
Ian Hunter--You're Never Alone With A Schizophrenic
I chose to ignore the "best of" or "greatest hits" thing, apparently. I HAD to.
10. U2--Achtung Baby
Ooops! Guess I didn't go by the roolz. *grin*
Well, I kinda cheated, too, by not picking one of the Foo Fighter CDs. But if I could put compilations on the list, I'd definitely add:
Elvis Costello--The Very Best of Elvis Costello
Squeeze--Singles and 45s
Stone Temple Pilots--Thank You
Collective Soul--Seven Year Itch: Greatest Hits 1994-2001
The Clarks--Between Now and Then
I've got a soft spot for Elvis Costello.
I surely can't think of 10.
1. What's Going On - Marvin Gaye
2. Butterfly - Barbra
3. The Heat is On - Isley Brothers
4. Pearl - Janis
5. Greatest Hits - Sly
6. The one I have at home - Steve Perry
7. Back to Oakland - Tower of Power (sentimental memories)
That's all for now.
Squeeze! One of my favorites and Elvis Costello too.
Breezy! "Don't STop Believin!" *Shakes fist with mullet flapping in breeze*
I'm terrible with album names but I'll give it a shot.
1. Frampton Comes Alive - Peter Frampton.
2. Hotel California - Eagles
3. Drive - Alan Jackson
4. White Album - Beatles
5. Redneck Woman - Gretchen Wilson
6. Five Days in July - Blue Rodeo
7. Palace of Gold - Blue Rodeo
8. Honkey Tonk U? - Toby Keith
9. Something by Dixie Chicks
10. Great Big Sea - not sure what the album name is.
The "no best of" rule really screwed my up. *pout*
