Because I love these kind of polls, and I am nosey and want to know what music people dig the most, here we go:
You are to be stranded on a Big Chocolate Sundae for the rest of your life. You can take 6 albums and a book with you. What do you take?

For me, and in no particular order, I'd take
Head On - Super_Collider
Since I Left You - The Avalanches
Kid A - Radiohead
I Care Because You Do - Aphex Twin
Alice - Tom Waits
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
and the book would be the Omnibus edition of Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, the full 5-part trilogy. Simply because it's the only book I never tire of re-reading.

oh god i cant do these.
there are far too many albums id want to take.
if i could only take one book it would be moby dick because i havent read it all and its amazing, fucking long and dense, so it would keep me occupied
music wise, well id take an i-pod of course! with the most brilliant compilation of all time on it!

Christ, what a question! Well, if you were going to be stranded on a bloody chocolate sunday forever the music would have to be classics, music you still play occasionally after 10 years or so.( Music that ment something to you and still does.) In no particular order I would take...
LFO, Frequencies. The Shamen, Entact. Talking Heads, Remain in Light. Japan, Tin Drum. Sweet Exorcist, cccd. The The, Soul Mining.
That is the first 6 that comes to mind, there are many, many more. I would take a Dictionary with me and a pen and paper and hopefully I would be rescued soon !

this is tough but at the moment, if i had to choose:
1. My Bloody Valentine-Loveless
2. Talking Heads-Remain in Light
3. De La Soul-3ft high and rising
4. John Coltrane-Giant Steps
5. Vladislav Delay-Entain
6. Crisitan Vogel-Absolute Time
and the book, Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller
still haven't finished that one so i thought that would be a good choice.
