Guests are invited to choose the 11 'records' they would take to a desert island. All my choices are open to interpretation by the individual and imply many different meanings, therefore their relevance is purely subjective In the words of Dermot O'Leary.... 'in no particular order' Joy Division - Isolation Stiff Little Fingers - Tin Soldiers Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy The Clash - Guns Of Brixton Red Hot Chili Peppers - By The Way Siouxsie And The Banshees - Israel John Cooper Clarke - Beasley Street Bloodhound Gang - Kiss Me Where It Smells Funny The Stranglers - Hanging Around Jessie J - Price Tag The Specials - Stupid Marriage Before you say what a pile of ****e, say what you would you take! So Go Buddy Go! As it seems difficult picking out Album's or single's and keeping to a choice of 11... lets change that and say anything goes!
U2 - Joshua Tree Pink Floyd - The Final Cut Roger Waters - In the Flesh Coldplay - Parachutes REM - Out of Time The Killers - Sams Town AC/DC - Live Green Day - American Idiot Stereophonics - World gets Around Simply Minds - Live in the City of Light The Beatles - St Peppers I could of named loads more with the same artist, but I choose the favourite album by each artist.
