Deserted Island Artist...

[electronpirate]

It's time.

If you had one artist (includes bands of course,) you had to listen to stranded on a remote Island...for years. Who would it be?

I'll give my answer in a bit, but curious to see what folks will post. In my mind, a 'top 5' are going to emerge (and they should be obvious...)

Ready....GO.

Snarky Puppy

Snarky Puppy

I was going to say Roth-era Van Halen... But having gotten into Snarky Puppy in the last year or so, that's a good choice, too!

I might also choose John Mayer... Or Steely Dan... Depending on the day and my mood.

Many guitarists I love, but I gotta have some good vocals.

 

[Moke]

I pick 'Lynyrd Van Zep-Beck-smith'

 

[NothingButInitials]

Ozric Tentacles

 

[Rhodes]

Frank Zappa's entire catalog. Gotta be at least a years worth of listening material without repeating itself.

'Listen' to Jenna Jameson's work?? You'd be just as well going for a walk through the swampy area of your desert island for the same effect

For me it would probably have to be The Beatles catalogue

+2 on Steely Dan! Would have been an easy answer for me for 30+ years now.

 

[TMac1957]

Lee Ritenour

 

[Geezerjohn]

Jeff Beck's catalog. I could play it backwards and hear Beatles songs.

 

[Scented Meat]

Can't decide between Rush and Eno.

 

[ksandvik]

Frank Zappa, it could take decades to understand all the work he did.
