You can only take 5 albums to a deserted Island...


But there is a world class system there for your use.  Leaving many favorites behind but I must have:

Yes - Close to the Edge
Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs
Neil Young - Everybody Knows this is Nowhere
John Lee Hooker - Mr. Lucky



pops
Jimi Hendrix - Axis Bold as Love
Jeff Beck - Truth
Andreas Vollenweider - Book of Roses
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (live version)
The Who - Quadrophenia
Dudes, we are doing it! Repopulating the Island!! And it looks good!!! On my third coming to the island I bring:
Goose Island by Camel
Shamal by Gong (this LP is my lifesaver for those painful hangover mornings!)
The Colour of Spring by Talk Talk for those moments when u need help living on an Island with a bunch of dudes. Very potent downer!!!
1st Brahms Sym under Bohm, on constant roration since I was 10
Minstrel in the Gallery remastered by Steven Wilson

Thank you, MOUNTZ, for bringing KC, I thought you'll never get here!
The Clash - London Calling
Brian Eno - The Shutov Assembly
Sugar Cubes - Life's Too Good
Yes - Close Too The Edge
Jimi Hendrix  - Axis: Bold as Love
CHUCK928: thank you for chipping in, how did I forget about The Shutov Assembly, its a Must (and Nerve Net, of course!) 
i got myself a new hobby of restoration/upgrade of the 1st gen of portable CD players (selling them on eBay seems too stressful, so they just pile up!) and London Calling is the CD to check the final results, so its in constant rotation in my den!
i will check Sugar Cubes right away, never heard of them but u sound like my kind of dude. Whats your next 8 records?
I've done this so many times in my head over the years. Wish I would have written and saved them. In no paticular order:
Pink Floyd - Meddle
Led Zeppelin - II
David Bowie - Alladin Sane
T. Rex - The Slider
Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street
Lustmord - Rising (to keep unfriendlies away)
Steve Roach - The Magnicent Void
Frank Sinatra - The Capitol Collection

Your next eight?
