No particular order. No runners up. No more than five. No maybes.

These are the only five records that you can every listen to again. Well okay, maybe the only five that you can listen for for a suitably long period of time. But you get the idea. (I checked, but Kerble at me if I deserve Kerbleing)

The White Album
Fear of a Black Planet
Bitches Brew
Evol
Front By Front

Yeah five is mercenary, but this makes us consider what it is that is really important in life

Van Morrison - Astral Weeks
Verlaines - Juvenilia
Sonic Youth - daydream nation
Electric Wizard - Dopethrone
The Fall - Perverted By Language

should say Jesus Lizard - Liar & Goat but may have thrashed them beyond death over the last 30 years

Jesus Christ, go and listen to Evol at once. It has a lot of sonic depth, so get a good HD version or the record etc. Here is some SY preaching - grab Bad Moon Rising, Evol, The Whitey Album, and Made in USA, and threat them as a four album run by some other band. Just treat them as their own little world of four and spend some time getting to know it. It's a magical place : )

This is downright evil. I'll think on it.

Edit: Still evil. Have thought on it.

Neurosis - Through Silver in Blood
The KLF - Chill Out
The Abyssinnians - Satta Massagana
Underworld - Second Toughest in the Infants
Miles Davis - A Tribute to Jack Johnson

I'd have to carry 70 lp's to a desert island. Too hard to choose. But this would be a nice selection;

Some Kyuss.
Cheap trick first LP.
Venus luxure n1
Some Unwound
Some sabbath... vol 4?.
