Mike Oldfield TB2003
Dr John Duke Elegant
Rush Moving Pictures

 

I just had a talk on this with my son and a friend of his (both 20 and accomplished musicians). Their pick:

My son:
Pink Floyd - Dark side of the moon
AC/DC - Highway to hell
Rachmaninoff - Piano concertos 2 and 3 Byron Janis / Antal Dorati

His friend:
Beatles - Abbey Road
J. Hendrix - Axis bold as love
The band - Last Waltz

Interestingly, it's mostly 70s anglosaxon music.

I'am afraid my own choice is off topic
Bach - St John Passion - Philippe Herreweghe (or Michel Corboz)

 

My choices today might be:
Mingus -- Blues and Roots
Brel -- Intégrale Jacques Brel
VA -- The music of Islam

OK, so I cheated. Sue me.

 

radiohead the bends, most certainly.
tears for fears the hurting, quite possibly.
pixies doolittle, perhaps.

 

U2 - Joshua Tree
Rush - Moving Pictures
Bowie - Diamond Dogs
Regards
RG

 

Rush - A Farewell to Kings
Philip Glass - Solo Piano
Elizabeth Valetti - Innocenti

but, I'd have to escape after a week to change my selection.

 

Well, nos 1 and 3 would almost certainly be on my list also but not AC/DC . Restricting it to 3 is harsh, but I'd probably complete the set with Wagner's Götterdämmerung - Solti / Vienna Philharmonic.

Michael.

 

I agree with you on AC/DC ... and I'm exposed to it at home all the time ...

 

Quite A few Rush fans here,excellent

 

I reckon 4 of us Sticky, running gun you and me, still not ashamed to admit that no one else comes close.

 

AK I could not agree more, possibly the 3 best people at their given trade in the world at the moment (IMO).If there is I bow to superior knowledge.

RG others may disagree, they may not be the best individually (although Peart is the best skinsman for me)but they come close to the top, but as a band I don't think there are another 3 more in harmony than RUSH, so damn tight, it's as if they are connected mentally. Take camera eye from MP wow, feckin amazing even after all these years, 10min 55 secs seems to fifish in a coupla minutes, I've been into this band for more than 25 years and they still give me goosebumps.

 

even when TOTPs stuck on Pams People to Spirit of the Radio.............................my sisters took the piss for years (one of my fave Rush tracks as well)

 

They didn't even do the whole song as I remeber, and the week before we got 30 secs of the video.
