Albums:
London Calling
Velvet Underground and Nico
The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady
The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld
Blonde on Blonde



Runners Up:
Trout Mask Replica
Funhouse
Ascension
Shape of Jazz to Come
Setting Sons

I changed from Setting Sons to Ultraworld because it broadens what i have there and Ultraworld is a double album and setting sons is a very short single album

Well the criteria I've set for my list is this:

"This is a list of the albums which mean the most to me, not necessarily of how 'good' they are. The higher they are the harder it is to imagine living without them."

So it's hard not to just pick my top 5:

The Streets - Original Pirate Material
The Smiths - The Smiths
Nas - Illmatic
The Libertines - Up The Bracket
The Prodigy - The Fat Of The Land

Although to be honest I could easily swap in any of the top 10 or even 15.

As for songs, well that's a lot harder, I'll go for these:

Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing
Sonic Youth - Teenage Riot
David Bowie - Cygnet Committee
The Stooges - I Wanna Be Your Dog
Joy Division - New Dawn Fades

This would be likely to change though, I can just imagine myself on the island bored as f*** and wondering why on earth I hadn't picked x, y or z. Anyway they're my top 5, for today.
