    1. The Who- Quadrophenia
    2. Frank Zappa- Lather
    3. Marillion- La Gazza Ladra
    4. King Crimson- Red
    5. Rush- Different Stages

    Most of them are 2 disc affairs, and the live ones are because their is too much of the catalogue I'd miss... so why not have a bunch spread out?

    If I was stranded on an island, I would need music that would help me keep my mind! Do you really want "Red" to help you "stay sane" on a deserted isle?
