Desert Island Dicks

[Jake]

I;ve done this before possibly, but what the hell reflective of all my life am guessing just ten albums

1. the stranglers err tough one, tough one but right now I am going with feline or rattus based on these being the first I heard

2. Killing Joke- absolute dissent (too easy to say first album, this is the best album ever from a band who have already endured a 30 + year career)

3. Motorhead No Sleep til hammersmith

4. New Model Army- Thunder and Consolation

5. Siouxsie and the Banshess- JuJu

6. Asian Dub Foundation- A history of now

7. Kate Bush- Hounds of love

8. The Smiths- Meat is Murder

9. Linton Kwesi Johnson- Forces of Victory

10. David Bowie- Hunky Dory


fuck I have missed out so many albums , 10 is never enough but there uou go

Love Pulp - not everyone's cup of tea, and saw Rollins Band at Reading (twice) in the early nineties - fuckin awesome If you've not heard much from either band, these are two great albums to introduce you. Totally different though

PULP were kind of hard to aavoid at one point, didnt much care for them at the time, but have the hits and I think Last Day of the Miners Strike is a fuckiing fantastic song, I believe I have A Different Class by Pulp knocing around. Rollins is a guy you just got to admire, but don't own any of his material period. But fuck how could I have left either of Joy Division's albums out, even substance would have done nicely, and there's hundreds of others you know what I would rather go for a nice big capacity ipod, solar panel to charge it or what have you, a record deck and the remaining 6 or what have you items would be pretty much any of the choices on vinyl, so long as at least one was a stranglers album, prob my copy of rattus coz it has a good personal story behind it sort of thing

I know that feeling, still there's at least 5 excellent ones Killing Joke- Extremities, Dirt and Various Repressed Emotions, that's a blinding album, loathe to say it but probably like it more than I like The Raven!
