Luckily, you should also get a book of your choice (not including The Bible or whatever) and one luxury item!  But them's the rules!

Plus, they have to be able to fit in the canoe.. WAIT, I HAVE A CANOE?

Gramme Friday

Get 'Em Out ... by Friday.

In the Court of the Crimson King - King Crimson
Kind of Blue - Miles Davis
Music for 18 Musicians - Steve Reich
Selling England By the Pound - Genesis
Mirage - Camel
SMPT:e - Transatlantic
The Smile Sessions - The Beach Boys
Still Life - Van der Graaf Generator
The Sky Moves Sideways - Porcupine Tree
(enormous classical compilation)

Not necessarily in that order. I might have to ditch the Beach Boys in order to get Ravel because I doubt the compilation would have him. Oops, that's ten. I hid two in highly uncomfortable places, so I earned them.

Nice you should quote 'Spandaus' .  Shows a diverse interest in music.

I love both live Yes albums but the Yessongs by association I guess. No doubt YesShows a far superior production, but it was the 70's, crackles, hisses and skips were the order of the day Quality was not a major.
