what 5 LPs in this world could you not live without? and why?
im really curious as to what you will all say... as for myself... and if i can relate to your reasons for liking something so much i'll most likely go and check it out :)
Marvin Gaye - Here, My Dear : would have either been this or "Midnight Love" but marvin oozes class... after Marvin and his wife divorced, she took him to court... and for some reason the settlement was the profits of Marvin's next album... the story goes that marvin was going to do a rush job so as not to just 'give away' his best work... but a year and a half later he'd written this masterpice... full of bitterness and resentment and sadness.
David Bowie - Low : not much to say here other than another masterpiece... written on the back of his suicide attempt in berlin... has all the powerful instrumentals and the amazingly good "Subterraneans" which to me carries a similar mood and intensity only matched by Autechres Vletrmx!
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless / Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile : sentimental reasons... was going through a very strange time in my life and these albums became the soundtrack.
Autechre - Confield : i dont think i need to say too much about this :) my favorite piece of artwork so far.
