What's the one music album you would take on a desert island?

I would take Kent: Hagnesta Hill (Say you have a 128mb mp3 player and a solar charger)

Pretty Hate Machine Remastered - Nine Inch Nails

I have phm from like 35 years ago. Is the remaster better?

maybe just a little more clarity, but now im second guessing myself. cant go wrong with either and im not sure why i called out the remaster specifically, maybe cuz it is just in my rotation a lot

... And that's totally okay. And now I need to check it out and compare. So thanks a lot. ;-)

Songs of Leonard Cohen 1967.

Blonde on blonde, Bob Dylan 1966.

Highway 61 revisited, Bob Dylan 1961.

Everything you've come to expect, tlsp 2016.

My beautiful dark twisted fantasy, kanye 2010. (Sorry)

I'd be happy with any of these. But I'd give highway 61 revisited the top spot easily.

This is hard as I have a ton of favorite albums. Just saying whatever cimes to mind first, I’d pick: In Absentia by Porcupine Tree.

Have A Nice Life - Deathconsciousness

Some classical symphonic music greatest pieces album that's at least 2 CDs worth, but hopefully more. Being on a desert island, I'm sure I will go through all sorts of moods and emotions, so I'll need something for everything.

Going to name a few that I would be happy with:

Jimmy Eat World - Clarity

Mineral - The Power of Failing

Anathallo - Floating World

The Decemberists - Picaresque

Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

Music From the Unrealized Film Script: Dusk at Cubist Castle, by The Olivia Tremor Control. This album is so good it almost hurts.

Not sure, but Dopesmoker by Sleep would be up there.
