What/Who would be on your perfect album, I was thinking about this at 3am this morning when it had eventually quietened down at work...Mine would include the following:
Kate Bush
Jeff Buckley
David Bowie
Neil Young
The Pixies
Radiohead
Coldplay - early stuff
Joy Division
The Smiths
Cocteau Twins
Pink Floyd
Probably think of tons more as soon as I press submit...

Ooops sorry but reading that thread I think it is a slightly different idea I was expressing....never mind.

**just ignore me & I go away after a bit**
Sorry ! (grovels quickly) You're right of course !
Actually, my record collection contains stuff by every artist on your list - you have great taste in music ! I have a Floyd DVD playing as we speak....
I'd not complain at any of those but maybe add some Cure, Siouxsie and Bauhaus ?
Seems we aren't ignoring you so you'd better come back !!
Carpathian, who'll read threads more carefully next time !
Forgiven Carpathian.......but of course....
Actually again I was holding back on the 'real' music I love which includes Interpol, Cooper Temple Clause, Sisters Of Mercy & of course Bahaus....What happend to Mr Cheekbones Pete Murphy...remember the Maxell ad he was in??? Gorgeous...I always drive according to the music I am listening to so if it is Metallica/Nirvana or Soundgarden etc you had better get out of my way coz I aint stopping for anyone,,,however if it is Bob Dylan, Jeff or Neil then I shall be cruising & singing my little heart out - thank god for tinted windows..
Totally not on thread but you lot are superb, amazing & lovely & more than once you have bought a tear to my eyes & joy to my heart...thank you each & every one xxxx :P

Don't worry - it's probably my fault - you got for it. But there is a CD coming out based on the whole thread so Carpy will (AT SOME POINT) publish the final list...fuck, I think he might have already!!
*goes off to look at threads for list*
Nope, not yet ! Have the 15 tracks but not the order - doing that as we speak !
Next few days will see a post - promise Jags !

The Sisters - now you're talking ! Recently downloaded the Albert Hall gig as my VHS was getting so warn... {grin} As for Pete Murphy, he could cut things with those cheekbones, I'm sure of it !
Whisper it quietly but Buckleys "Hallelujah" made the final SH CD.....

Last thing to bring tears to my eyes was the piece of Jalapeno I'd missed when cooking tonight - I'm somewhat of a scarlet hue still.....
Nice to see that smile !

I'm afraid the only two of the second list that I'm familiar with is the Sisters and Bauhaus. The string quartet version of Enter Sandman doesn't count. I do a bit better with the first lot.
I'd love to go to more gigs. I'd love to go to any gigs at all. The bands I want to hear tend to play in pubs, which isn't somewhere I feel comfortable in company. There's no chance on my own.
I have made a vow that when this spiffing new music centre is completed, I shall attend whatever is happening on as regular a basis as possible.

Not bad if you're going to pick two - what else would make *your* 3am CD then ?
(see Moist ! It's back on track to the original topic - knew it would in the end !)

^^^ What they said ^^^
and another, Bert Jansch, last gig I went to since babies stopped me having a life!
PS Yosarian, is that meant to be the same one as Catch 22? If so, was it a typo, I can change it if you like easy peasy - let me know.
Yes as in Yossarian - I was just seeing what a sofistikated bunch u were !
