What are CD's?

After the demise of albums when I could no longer run my fingers along those crisp edges of the cover in anticipation of opening it up and reading what was inside all the while enjoying all the graphics on both the inside and out, I kinda lost interest in those little plastic disks inside cheesy boxes with limited artwork and reading.

I know, better sound, last longer, won't warp (ok they do) and all that stuff.

I'd have to go the rip route and load up a single 100GB player (with video) and trash the CD's.

Besides, what good are CD's if you don't have a player on that island or while lost in space?

I know off topic.

I'm from the generation of not buying CDs so much anymore, but I do own these things you call CDs

The 5 I'd take with me are:

* Brigid's Cross - The Parting Glass (here's to my Irish roots and Cleveland roots)

* Chuck Taylor and the Dixie Squid - There's No Crabs Within This Band (my favorite CD of them, taking me back to my college days and appreciation for other music; the song Louisiana Fairytale on this CD is the theme from the TV show This Old House )

* Chumbawamba - Tub Thumping (give me something to dance with and get motivated with)

* Enya - Watermark (something to relax with, my favorite relaxing CD by her)

* Blessid Union of Souls - Home (just another favorite CD of mine)

Well, since there's no electricity and probably not an endless supply of batteries....my list would have to be the CDs that I really love to listen to:

Top three would be soundtracks:

TOP GUN

Streets of Fire

Eddie and the Cruisers

Doc Friday (a CD made by a group of guys in the U.S. Air Force. The CD name is also the name of their band)

Harry Chapin - Greatest Hits

Wow, SQL Bill!

I didn't think about the sound tracks. Those are all good choices!

Hope life is treating you well! I have missed your smiling face and insight!

All the best,

Dale

I agree with all of Steve's choices with the editoral, but must admit I have found new choices of music(rock) that I don't have to worry about what my kids repeat in the lyrics and they are all awesome! My updated choices are now anything by: Tobymac, ReliantK, Switchfoot, Hawk Nelson, and Jeremy Camp.

I'm on a two month trip overseas, so I had to make a similar, though not so limited, choice (I have a 1GB and a 2GB card for my mp3 player). My five are:

Eagles Hotel California

Robert Earl Keen No. 2 Live Dinner

The Band Last Waltz

Beethoven Ninth Symphony

Johnny Cash Greatest Hits

Someone said:

>My theory is that anything too hard-hitting will grow boring over time, so most of them need to be able to just flow over you, with a smattering of blood-stirrers.

True if only ONE song was to be chosen.

5 CDs => 60 songs...

I found three death metal lists, so I'll be adding a fourth:

) Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power (pure energy)

) At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul (best album ever)

) Metallica - Master of Puppets (did you guys forget about their best...!?)

) The Haunted - rEVOLVEr

) Mastodon - Leviathan

Some nice tips worth checking out on the contributed lists!
