Desert Island Disks

Almost impossible to pick only 10 albums - how sad to think of all the music I would miss out on while stuck on the island.

Abbey Road

The Beatles

Hard to pick only one Beatles album but this is my most listened to.

Talking With The Taxman About Poetry

Billy Bragg

I love Billy Bragg and again, it's hard to pick just one album, but this one includes "The warmest room" which is one of my favourite BB songs.

Chris Barber's Jazz Band With Ottilie Patterson

This was my Dad's record and not only would it be a lovely reminder of him, the upbeat songs would get me dancing, and the blues would make me sing along.

Crosby, Stills & Nash

This has been one of my all-time-favourites since I first heard it 40ish years ago .

Jeff Wayne's Musical Version Of The War Of The Worlds

Jeff Wayne

I love this and listening to Richard Burton's voice would help me feel less alone.

Searching For The Young Soul Rebels

Dexys Midnight Runners

Another favourite album - this would get me singing along. I love Kevin Rowland's vocals.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

Bob has been there throughout my life so again it's hard to pick just one album, but if I had to grab one to save from the fire it this would be it.

La Symphonie Des Éclairs (Le Dernier Des Voyages)

Zaho De Sagazan

A more recent discovery but one I'm a bit obsessed with! Lots of the music I love was discovered much earlier in my life, so its nice to have something new that doesn't carry lots of associations.

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

Again, hard to narrow Paul Simon's output down to just one album, but here as Simon & Garfunkel his voice, and especially in harmony with Art's, is just perfection. I would never tire of listening to this.

The Stone Roses

This album is great from start to finish and transports me back to a time where I was just embarking on life as an adult and it felt full of possibilities...
