Topic: One discography only! Posted: August 16 2010 at 12:24 |
Frank Zappa. It was between that and KC for both having a wide range of albums. But I feel Zappa would have something to satisfy any kind of musical urge I'd have. As in "I want some classical, I want some jazz, I want some real progressive rock, or I want some damn good blues." Zappa could satisfy for all those and more.

I think it would come down to Yes or Gentle Giant but GG was the first one to pop into my mind, so I'll go with them.

Pink Floyd or Camel ? This is the question...

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I think I would cheat and try to record my favourite tunes with my own band. It would be a huge discography: at least 20 CDs of covers, from Kate Bush to Napalm Death, including Iron Maiden, Zappa, KC and Front 242 or Cabaret Voltaire. Now, I just have to find some courageous musicians...

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Now that is a big discography.  However, I'd have to go with good old Bach.

It ain't getting much more homoerotic than this.  I'll take these guys anytime and anywhere. Uhm... can I have a bit of Tull too? and some Ludwig perhaps?

Seriously... forget Bach. I'd choose Justin Bieber. He's young, therefore we can expect a lot more from him, and he's, well... the future.

They're all available on iTunes, but the official shop is still closed, following Tim's health problems. I think Wayside still has copies of the Garage Concerts, which are definitely worth picking up, but that's about it. Don't go paying for overpriced CDs on eBay - at least Tim will see a fraction of the money if you buy the albums through iTunes!

What a horrifying prospect.
It's a toss up for me. It'd likely simply come down to which ever I managed to grab first, but Yes or Sloan is what it would come down to. I've already tested the limits of replayability for both and they've come through rather well for the most part. Relayer is easily one of my top selections and I know I've listened to Never Hear the End of It more than any other album.
However, I did just buy a bunch of Tangerine Dream and Weather Report recently and they've been soaking up a lot of replays.

Me too.
Though I might consider Dream Theater, since they have many covers albums, including some covers from whole classic albums. Even if this covers usually fall a bit short from the originals, they are still good enough and I might have some music from other great bands available to hear through DT.

All 1 (soon 2) albums, eh?

Lame. Even Jean Louis would get old if that's all you had to listen to.
I'd go with Magma or maybe Satoko Fujii since she has a large and diverse discography.
|
Yeah, I was kidding. It would have to be Magma; not only are they the greatest damn band there has ever been, but they are still putting out material which is consistent (in terms of quality) with their classic releases. Does the thread subject imply that we also automatically get all of the artist's discog? That would be a big $ saver

I'm looking forward to the new Weidorje album once it's finally done - live album, to be released sometime (I think next year?) on Soleil Zeuhl.
