If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over.............


Your " best ever " recording, which has likely been discussed ad nauseam, would you select, say, if given a choice of only one ( whatever the scenario would be; stranded on an island, locked up in isolation, all music gone, but this one ). As hard as this is, as there are so many to choose from, I have selected " A Tribute To Jack Johnson ", by the esteemed Miles Davis ( 1992 Columbia version ). I have selected this, specifically for the performances, as I do with all of my listening. The playing.....the musicianship.....the arrangement.....the story, set to music, by the esteemed M.D.. And, my system delivers the message, so I feel proud of my set up. What can I say ? I hope everyone well, and, ENJOY ! Always, MrD.

Waiting for Columbus is an excellent choice.  For me Miles Davis Kind of Blue and Radiohead The Bends

I was considering the Tony Bennett and Bill Evans album but, rightly, it's already been referenced.

So I'll plump for the second (1981) recording of the Goldberg Variations by Glenn Gould.

Frank Zappa’s Orchestra Favorites. I’ve already listen to it 100 times at least.

The Clash-London Calling, perfect for an island.

Charles Mingus- The black saint and the sinner lady.
