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

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?

I play Uriah Heep "Demons and Wizards" much more often than Led Zeppelin, Yes, or even the Stones. Tie with Deep Purple: given a choice of July Morning or Smoke on the Water I would probably die like Buridan's ass even before getting to the Island

Must admit that after playing "Brothers in Arms" gazillion times, I cannot take it no more! I choose "Love over Gold", it is still in constant rotation on my Sondek.

"Dark Side of the Moog" series by Pete Namlook and KS should look nice next to Lustmord and Steve Roach

Peter Nooten and Michael Brook: "Sleeps with the Fishes" - as stunning as Meddle, even on the millionth listen

Clan of Xymox: 1st s/t album and/or Medusa to be placed next to "Sleeps With the Fishes"

Electric Orange - recommended for Pink Floyd fans by one of HiFi+ editors. Am I glad that I subscribed to this Brits journal (here it disappears from the stands in a day!), otherwise I could have missed this band. Electric Orange self-ttitled and also Cyberdelic or at least Orange Commutation is a Must-Have!!... Their one cover tune, "Careful with that ax, Eugene" is how it should have been done in the first place. Always strange but recognizable electronic/rock. Tough to file, maybe next to Kraftwerk, but since I cannot stand Kraftwerk it goes next to Tangerine Dream, PF, Magma, Gong, Mum, Orb. For those who think that after listening to TD, Klaus Schulze, Lustmord, Namlook and Shonwalder there is no more surprises there, just listen to a 66min drone of "Cows Don't Dream at Night".

Sisters of Mercy: Floodland to wake you up and to get some musical viruses in your brain ;-)
