Right, give this some thought Lads and Lasses but you’ve got to pick 8 records that you would take to a Desert Island. It’s not as easy as it sounds, but after much deliberation here’s my choice Led Zeppelin - Ramble On The Doors - LA Woman The Stones - Sympathy for the Devil The Who - - Won’t get Fooled Again The Faces/ Rod Stewart - Every picture tells a Story Sex Pistols - Pretty Vacant The Beatles- Let it Be The Cure - In Between Days Over to you
The Smiths - I know it's over Talking Heads - Life During Wartime Meat Loaf - Dead Ringer for Love ELO - Mr. Blue Sky Adele - Someone like you Stones - Honkey Tonk Woman Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the UK Clash - I fought the Law Might change when I'm in a different mood - bloody hard to pick 8 !
I take you mean 8 songs, not 8 albums? 8 songs I would take ( this week). Scorpions - Fly to the Rainbow (Tokyo Tapes live version) Rush - 2112 Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath AC/DC - Shot Down in Flames Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird Roy Orbison - It's Over Boomtown Rats - (I Never Loved) Eva Braun Amy Macdonald - Footballer's Wife
This will change daily but today 2112 - Rush English Folk Song Suite - Ralph Vaughan Williams Long Live Rock and Roll - Rainbow Blackout - Scorpions It’s a Long Way To The Top (if you want to rock n roll) - AC/DC Motorhead - Motörhead Lola - The Kinks Get Back - The Beatles
1. Imagine (John Lennon) 2. Comfortable Numb (Pink Floyd) 3. Reputation ( Dusty Springfield) 4. Lets Dance (Bowie) 5. Penny Lane ( The Beatles) 6. Sorrow ( Pink Floyd) 7. Coming Back to Life ( Pink Floyd) 8. Have I told you lately ( Rod Stewart)
Christ, where to begin! 1. Book of Brilliant Things - Simple Minds 2. George Harrison - Wah Wah 3. Duel - Propaganda 4. Psycho Killer - Talking Heads 5. I Don't See Them - Paul Heaton 6. Bad - U2 7. Glory Days - Bruce Springsteen 8. God's Gonna Cut You Down - Johnny Cash

Molly's chambers - Kings Of Leon. White Horse - Chris Stapleton. Enter Sandman - Metallica. Duality - Slipknot. Monsters - James Blunt. Pencil full of lead - Paolo Nutini. I need never get old - Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats. Hard To Handle - Black Crowes. That's my list today but will probably change tomorrow
It is tough isn’t it. I could probably have picked 8 Beatles songs to be honest. Just looked at my list again and can’t believe I haven’t picked anything by Pink Floyd or Bowie
Ricochet, Part 2 (Tangerine Dream) Requiem, Mozart Mercy mercy me, Marvin Gaye Purple Rain, Prince Many rivers to cross, Jimmy Cliff Welcome Home, Metallica Structures from Silence, Steve Roach My Death, Bowie Almost impossible. Tried to reach across genres.
The thing is, I was thinking if I was on a desert island, I dont need any songs full of angst, or loves lost. Still thinking
Moonage Daydream - Bowie Atmosphere - Joy Division Tomorrow Never Knows - Beatles The Gael - Dougie MacLean Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone Shake it out - Florence and the Machine The man who sold the world - Nirvana Shine a light - Stones Honourable mentioned to Wake Up by Arcade Fire.
1. Burn The Witch - Radiohead 2. Late In The Day - Supergrass 3. Something - The Beatles 4. The End - The Beatles 5. Sound & Vision - Beck 6. Daily Mail - Radiohead 7. Come Together - Primal Scream 8. Go With The Flow - Queens Of Stone Age
Bloody hell that was hard. If I started again now I would have a completely different eight. Deliberately avoiding Dylan and in no particular order: The Fields of Athenry - Paddy Reilly The Weight – The Band Hotel California – The Eagles Deportee – Woody Guthrie No Man's Land - Eric Bogle Die Like A Rich Boy - Frightened Rabbit Better Together - Jack Johnson Better Man – Paolo Nutini
Heartbreak Hotel - Elvis Memphis Tennessee - Chuck Berry Saw her Standing There - Beatles Come On - The Rolling Stones Like a Rolling Stone - Dylan When the Levee Breaks - Led Zep. No Woman No Cry - Bob Marley On Call - Kings of Leon
Mountains Beyond Mountains - Arcade Fire Its Not Dark Yet - Bob Dylan Big New Prinz - The Fall Farmer In The City - Scott Walker I Bit My Lip - Housemartins New Rose - The Damned All That - Sparks Lazy Line Painter Jane - Belle & Sebastian Album - Seamonsters - The Wedding Present
1 - Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge on Seattle - Nirvana 2 - Climbatize - Prodigy 3 - Be Quiet and Drive - Deftones 4 - Lovely Day - Bill Withers 5 - Moving - Supergrass 6 - Bulls On Parade - Rage Against The Machine 7 - Do I Do - Stevie Wonder 8 - What A Fool Believes - Doobie Brothers Could've continued the list to at least 200 before getting bored...
