When you’re marooned on a desert island, you can’t be too picky about what washes up on shore. So, instead of a list of specific records, here are ten bands – any albums from any of them will do nicely while I’m stranded. Funny thing is, my final list doesn’t have any new bands. I just couldn’t replace any of these with bands I’ve been introduced to over the past decade or so. Seems the more lists I make the more evident it becomes how stuck in the past I really am.

The Beatles
Bob Dylan
Fleetwood Mac
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
Pink Floyd
R.E.M.
Led Zeppelin
U2
Dire Straits
David Bowie
