If you could only keep 5 record albums, what would they be?


I am looking at my collection this evening and trying to determine my favorites.  If I had to narrow it down to 5 it would be: Dan Fogelberg...The Netherlands; Roy Clark...Yesterday When I Was Young; James Taylor...Flag; Talking Heads...77; and last but not at all least, Commodores...Greatest Hits. All oldies but goodies that I still enjoy listening to as much as when I bought them many years ago.

I have to say, it is like asking "who's your favorite child?"
I am past the half century mark so there's so much great music tied to so many great experiences. All of the above albums have me saying "ya, that one". The five best for me are the mood and flavor of the day. Too many to be concise. And for that I'm grateful. 

Genesis ---Trick of the Tail

Kansas--Left Overture

Queen --News of the World

Todd Rundgren-- Adventures in Utopia

Aerosmith --Get your Wings

This is just throwing some off the top of my head. I’m sure if I had it to seriously do this, I would put more thought into it . But these are pretty good

The Beatles --- Abby Road

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble-- The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble

Santana--- Corazon

Rodrigo y Gabriela-- Rodrigo y Gabriela & CUBA

Scott Bradlee's Post Modern Jukebox--- The Essentials.


Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Led Zeppelin - III
Rolling Stones - Flashpoint
Eric Clapton - Slowhand
Frank Sinatra - The Reprise Years
