Imagine yourself stranded on a deserted island and you have and endless supply of double A batteries and your portable CD player but, for some unknown reason, you only have 100 CD's and none of them are compilations or greatest hits, best ofs, live recordings or ultimate collection type of discs ... what 100 albums would you have?

Of course, if it was I, the 100 would be vinyl records and I would have a my complete stereo system on hand including my Mitchell turntable and I would have figured out how to generate electricity (windmill or watermill) ... however, that's not the case here ... but, the point is the same ... what 100 albums (either in CD or Vinyl format) would you have with you?

The following list will evolve and change over time as it is developed ... the list, for now, is in no particular order ... we will do that later ... as always, comments and suggestions are welcomed ...
