And to stick to my misreading of the thread wrt three Island records, i.e. fav albums issued by Island Records originally:
Krimson: Red
Nick Drake: 5 leaves Left
Spooky Tooth: Ceremony
And anybody game to head off in a tangent to the thread? What about favourites that were originally released on Harvest Records?
Edgar Broughton Band: Wasa Wasa
Roy Harper: HQ
Soft Machine: Triple Echo
Vertigo, Deram, (Columbia's British subsiderary) CBS??????????????

Raffaella, of course putting On Stage instead of MIJ on the list was a (deadly) difficult decision, but Ritchie´s solo on Catch the Rainbow swayed my vote.
Forgive me!

Impossible task - but anyway:
ELOY - Dawn
KANSAS - Leftouverture
URIAH HEEP - Demons and wizards
but I could answer this poll a hundred times, each one differently and
always feel like I should answer again ... hah ... already thinking
about:
PINK FLOYD - Dark side
MANFRED MANN'S EARTHBAND - Watch
DEEP PURPLE - Machine head
... or maybe better ... eh ...
what the heck - until I decided about this, I'm drowned anyway

Ah, Greg, you disappoint me... What about "Made in Japan"?  As to mine... I have too many favourites, but I can try: The aforementioned "Made in Japan" (Deep Purple, of course) Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick King Crimson - ITCOTCK

Wow, that's so bloody tough! Kleyan you're a smart man to include TFTO or I'd have punished you.  But seriously.. let's see! The Snow Goose Tales from Topographic Oceans The Six Wives of Henry VIII Special Mention: Close to the Edge, Relayer possibly. They just don't seem to last as long as the other three, though. Wow... I don't think I could take just three albums to a desert island! Too much good stuff to waste!

This has probably been done before. Your stranded on an island with unlimited batteries and a ghettoblaster. You know that you are going to spend the rest of your life alone, and your only comfort is the three CD's you put in your bag prior to the planecrash (or whatever). Which albums would that be?
Mine probably are Foxtrot, Tales From Topographic Oceans and Opeth's Still Life. And you?

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.
