This is a fun thing I have done on other forums, but never in a place that is music based like this one. I have found the answers interesting and based largely on age and geographic location.

Tomorrow is the apocalypse. Starting tomorrow you will live out your life in an underground shelter. Your only entertainment will be every album made by ONE band. Not including members who went off and did a solo project while the band was still alive, just by that one band in full. Who is your band?

When I was first asked this question many years ago, I didn't even have to think and I still don't. It would be The Beatles for me.

How about you?

Got to be the Eagles, with things that bad I would definitely need some easy listening to calm me down.

The Ventures. Over the years a large pile of records were pressed on multiple labels with the Ventures name as the artist. I use to buy their current offerings from the music store and "classic" offerings from the cut out bin found featured in many department stores back in the day.

Because I'd want a wide range of music I'd go with Yes.
Though I would have also considered Bowie and some others.
The range of stuff they did is impressive.
The creativeness and performance even more so.

I'm a musician at heart and learned so many things from listening to and studying their music, they were a big influence on me in my early years.

From 'Time and a Word' to 'Close to the Edge' to 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' .. and so many others in between.

I like the other choices mentioned previously, but I'd have to go with Yes.

Def The Beatles. Plenty of variety. Excellent music.

Put another way, what band could you not accept never hearing again? Again, The Beatles!

I'm with Jim. It would be all of my Venture albums, one of the most versatile bands ever.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.

Oooh this is a tough one for me! A couple that come to mind are Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Radiohead, and The Beatles. I name these few because of the variety in their discography. Not to mention I don't think I could get tired of albums like OK Computer, Animals, or Sgt. Peppers.

Great question - I'd love to hear other's thoughts on this smile


Cheers,

Definitely Chicago for me. Huge catalog and a lot of great music. Heck, I'd be happy to pare it down to a single album (albeit a double album) with Chicago II. It "makes me smile".

My initial thought was Led Zepplin....

so much really good stuff there .... from their early blues stuff to their rocking later years. And.... Kashmire..... wow.... that one song might carry you through the EOTWAWKI.


The big question in SHTF is... are you going to have the electrical power to play the music?

After all, the apocalypse is kind of an "all bets are off" situation.

If I had to live the rest of my life with the music of one band, I wouldn't just want something that I really enjoyed. I would want something I could study that would provide an endless challenge. For example, all the albums of Bill Evans (the pianist, not the sax player I know). Or Brazil's greatest living composer, Ivan Lins. You'd want something to take your mind off life in the shelter, especially when the beer ran out.
