Should i keep these CDs?
My uncle just moved to Thailand and left behind loads of CDs. I now own the entire Public Enemy and Radiohead back catalogues, woo hoo! BUT, be it to my credit or shame, i don't know if anything else here is worth keeping. So... should i?
BLUE OYSTER CULT- Agents Of Fortune
CAN- Future Days
DAVID BOWIE- Hunky Dory
DR. JOHN- Gris-Gris
ELVIS COSTELLO- This Years Model
JEFFERSON AIRPLANE- Best Of...
LOVE- Forever Changes
MILES DAVIS- Best Of...
NICK DRAKE-Five Leaves Left
R.E.M- Document
THE CURE- Bloodflowers
TOM WAITS- Swordfishtrombones
VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR- First Generation
WEATHER REPORT- Heavy Weather
And what looks like everything Talking Heads have ever done.
Jefferson Airplane f'sure
and Nick Drake is a must.
yes
but if you do not want swordfishtrombone, please send it to the DiS office... thank you.
Definitely keep Future Days
it's grrreat. Tom Waits is cool too. That all looks keepable actually.
Yeah my uncle is pretty cool
Although i did find a Limp Bizkit album as well
They are all
without exception great. But the best way to decide is to, durrr, listen to them.
i'd keep all of that too
i listened to that dr john album for the first time the other day, it's great.
^ Engels knows
yeah but where's the internet thread in that?
forever changes is only, liek, the fucking best album ever or something
i'll keep that then
I honestly can't see the appeal unless you're totally doing a whole
twee 60s club night or something.
or you just love incredible songs
a LOT of good stuff there
i'd say keep them all
Keep the Bowie one
toss that Cure one in the bin
keep Can
and that R.E.M, can trash the rest..
errr
listen to them?
is this such a ridiculous suggestion?!
Takes time..
Give me:
Jefferson Airplane, Love, Milesy Davy, Nicki Drake and I'll give you a dance.
what kind of dance?
^
idiot
been looking at my lastfm listening eh?
more worrying is that you dislike
BLUE OYSTER CULT
DR. JOHN
ELVIS COSTELLO
JEFFERSON AIRPLANE
LOVE
MILES DAVIS
NICK DRAKE
R.E.M
THE CURE
VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR
WEATHER REPORT
better than nothing.
all of them you fool!
DAVID BOWIE- Hunky Dory == Best Bowie album
For sure. Keep it.
seconded
makes a great drunk record.
Deffo keep Future Days
And swallow your pride a little and enjoy Van Der Graaf Generator.
Mostly good...
...but that weather report album's like the theme tune to Cagney and Lacey over and over and over.
Really?
That actually sounds quite appealing.
all of it obv
of those, bowie, waits and drake are classics IMO
Keep BOC and The Cure,
send the rest to me.
keep bowie, nick, miles and tom.
You have to.
Really.
You really have to.
Have.
to.
keep them
I would say keep them all!
KEEP
Love - Forever Changes whatever you do. It's absolutely seminal.
Keep them all
Well actually any Miles with the words 'best' and 'of' does worry me slightly (insofar as it will contain none of his best stuff except some of 'kind of blue' which you should own in its entirety anyway), but I might be wrong.
Why has your uncle moved to Thailand. Internet bride?
^ This
Keep them all. It's not like any of them are so shit it's worth getting rid of them. There's a modicum of diversity in the selection, too.
bf
deffo! You can do all kinds of groovy shit with cds. Put your beer on them. Put your cup of tea on them, er...comb your hair in them. They are so fucken cool!
*keep Love, Nick Drake, Dr John, Can, Tom Waits and D Bowie, probably Jefferson Airplane, unless it has Jefferson Starship tracks on it
^ ^ ^ Listen to him ^ ^ ^
Always listen to Grockle.
it sounds like
your uncle's just left you a pile of utterly amazing music.
keep it all.
Definitely keep
Van Der Graaf Generator. Easily one of the most intense bands I've ever heard.
Just
Nick Drake
The only one you need to jettison is
the Dr John one. Keep the rest
eedjit
keep:
nick drake, tom waits (genius) and van der graaf generator.
Would be silly to throw any away, but:
definitely keep REM, David bowie, Love and certainly all the talking heads stuff, esp more songs about..
