Location: SE Michigan | Our age betrays us. I like most of the groups you picked Tommy, but I think there are better albums:
Beatles - Abbey Road
Steely Dan - Can't buy a thrill
Crosby, Stills & Nash - Crosby, Stills & Nash
Neil Young - After the Gold Rush
Derek & The Dominos - Layla
You said 5 albums but listed six, so I'll add:
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours |

Location: Houston, TX | Ian, since you mentioned Spooky Tooth...I picked up the new Dick Cavett DVD collection the other day. It had a complete show from 1971 with George Harrison and Ravi Shankar, but the show opened with Gary Wright and Wonder Wheel doing Two Faced Man with GH sitting in on slide. Great tune. GH came stage forward to sit down with Cavett, and when the applause died down Cavett deadpanned "by now you all know this is Gary Wright".
Here's my 5:
...stupid of me to try. Probably why I have about 400 cd's. |

Here's my list
#1 First I would steal all of Country Artist's CDs and count that as one. (I cheat a lot)
#2 my all time favorite, touched by the king of over production, Cowboy Jack Clements, and played and sung by the king of song writers, Mickey Newberry: 'FRISCO MABEL JOY
My wife and I heard it in a Candle shop in San Diego in the 70's on a new stereo and it became our standard for beautiful stereo sound.
#3 Johnny Cash's FOLSOM PRISON
#4 DEJA VU (guess who is the artists)
#5 and maybe #1 BUCKEYE BLUEGRASS BAND CD
They produced a CD of all ORIGINAL bluegrass songs, 3 of which are in the top five of www.bandspace.com in the bluegrass category. This helped finance their Nordic Tour to Sweden and Norway that is documented on a beautiful DVD they recorded of their tour that I can get for anyone who really cares about bluegrass.
I won't need no stinkin' # 6 as I stole all of Country Artist's picks, he knows where real pickin' is at and where it came from, INCLUDING HIM!!! (I have his CD's that I would sneak under my hard hat to take with me to this barren place, I have found that if you wear a hard hat you can go anywhere without being searched.)
SO THERE!!! |

If I were limited to just ONE CD, that'd probably be IT.
It's an excellent "cross-section" of music that has a little of EVERYTHING. Klezmer to SouthAfrican, Opera to BookerT . . . |

Here\'s a fun little site that not only lists the episodes and story lines, but also details which music was used in each. Sometimes I watch particular shows just to hear the music. |
