Desert Island Discs Teneeka's challenge is to list your ten desert island discs - as the the radio station I listen to calls them - the discs you'd listen to forever. I wrote this list a few weeks ago on a board I participate in, so I'll copy them here.
1. McCartney - Paul McCartney
2. War - U2
3. Abbey Road - The Beatles
4. The Beatles (the White Album) - The Beatles
5. The Very Best of Elvis Costello - Elvis Costello
6. Heart Shaped World - Chris Isaak
7. Waiting for the Sun - The Doors
8. Duran Duran (the first album) - Duran Duran
9. The Best of David Bowie (the two volume set) - David Bowie
10. Joshua Tree - U2

Abbey Road was my second-draft choice for the Beatles slot on the top ten list! There's something so...unique about that album.
Do you have Baja Sessions by Chris Isaak? That was another almost-made-it on my list!
Oh yes, Janelle - I do have most of Chris' stuff - LOVE him! But, Wicked Game is just about my favorite song, so that album won out!
Abbey Road is one of those I didn't listen to a lot when I was younger, but the second side is just incredible!
What an awesome road trip, with the sounds of Abbey Road, Nancy!
oh how I love the Beatles. I love those two, and Sgt.Pepper. And U2. And David Bowie. :)oh yeah, and Elvis Costello. :p LOL very nice list
Good picks -- love costello.
All great choices but if it were me, I'd probably leave the Elvis Costello one at home! LOL
I like U2, The Beatles, The Door, Duran Duran, David Bowie. No wonder we get along, so well, we have similiar taste in music! I am really digging the book you sent me, thank you so much, it is a big deal, the heart, and it is very important in my life, and in those lives I touch with my own.
Elvis Costello will be making some appearances on the ol' TV this week:
On David Letterman with Emmylou Harris on July 21st singing "Love Hurts"
and
On NBC’s TODAY SHOW with Emmylou Harris on Friday, July 22nd
oh, i love them singing together. too bad i don't get broadcast tv.
Whohooo - Herman, thanks for letting me know!
The Doors rock...I LOVE their "Greatest Hits!"
