CD Collections

[AFKAR]

Hi,
Ive been talking with a few mates lately about my cd collections and what it is lacking (which is mainly older stuff....eg pink floyd, beatles etc)

So i thought id put the question forward, what 5cds are a must for any respectable cd collection? And im not just talking about prog, rock and metal or keyboardists..... im talkin EVERYTHING!!!!

Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
John Coltrane - Giant Steps
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

I think the following 5 are essential to a CD collection:

Genesis-The lamb lies down on Broadway
Arthur Rubinstein plays Chopin Ballads and Scherzos
Billy Cobham-Spectrum
Led Zeppelin 4
Kevin Gilbert- Thud

But that´s today....I might change my mind...

ok, talkin' classics.


Not all these albums are my favourite, but I find them classics


Marillion - Misplaced Childhood
Prince - Purple Rain
Queen - a Night at the Opera and/or Queen II
Pink FLoyd - The Wall
Toto - Toto IV and/or The Seventh One


and personal

Saga - Silent Knight
The Rudess-Morgenstein Project

OK...personal classic favorites would have to be...
Rush - Moving Pictures
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Led Zeppelin - II
Yes - Close to the Edge
Dream Theater - Images and Words

note: I&W may not be technically a classic but I consider it to be one of the greatest Rock recordings of all time !
