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.

Would one Boxed set be acceptable?

Citizen Dan it would be.

 

Or maybe Coltrane " The Atlantic Years"

@dpop 

The closest you can get is the "George Harrison Early Takes volume 1 "

For me, it can only be...

Santana Abraxas, the original Columbia pressing.

Also for those expressing concern about something being their only choice, the OP did not state that it would be playing constantly. Only that it would be the only recording you had available. Big difference to me anyways...

Happy listening.

What a demented and cruel thought experiment.  If the apocalypse comes and I con only save one it would have to be Steely Dan Gaucho. 

Hopefully I could find Dekay and listen to Quadrophenia again.
