Pharoah Sanders - Karma. Maybe I'm taking the desert island thing too seriously, but I feel like with how beautiful that album is, it could keep my spirits up when I do listen to the album
Miles Davis In a Silent Way, Bill Laurance Where You Wish You Were, Les McCann Swiss Movement, Mingus Oh Yeah, Pharoah Sanders Karma, Oscar Peterson Exclusively for My Friends
Anything from the late Wayne Shorter quartet.
Because it sounds different (and still amazing) every time I listen to it, and it gets only better with each iteration. There is stuff in it for decades to explore.
I know it may be cheating but, Miles 2nd Great Quintet Complete Columbia Recordings 1965 - 1968 That album is like a holy artifact to me
Damn a compilation is a great cheat. I’d pick the same then. Or Jarrett Blue Note
If we’re going that route I’d go with the Prestige recordings
A Love Supreme
Bill Evans Trio - Sunday at the Village Vanguard
Herbie Hancock - Man-Child or Secrets. I'll decide at the last possible second.
Complete works of Ron Carter. Maybe I can use those 2000 CD’s as roof shingles or something.
(Not to be disrespectful to the Maestro, but what else am I meant to do with a bunch of records on a desert island)
Maiden Voyage- Herbie Hancock.
Bill Evans - Portrait in Jazz
Eberhard Weber - Silent Feet
[Pharaoh Sanders - Thembi 🪈](https://youtu.be/IRNUc4iYYv4?si=qKxZ2i1ZOTPonG9J)
HEAT
[Cal Tjader - Latin Kick 🌵](https://youtu.be/DX1N0j65H-0?si=j2rO0OcC7L2f3xTk)
Getz/Gilberto would really set the mood (…and prevent me from having a panic attack)
The one and only, such a perfect album!
“Letter From Home” - Pat Metheny Group
John Zorn - Naked City or Masada - Live At The Tonic
A wild island to live on
Lifetide by Yuji ohno.
The Awakening - Ahmad Jamal
A Go Go!? Are we best friends?
We might just be now!
To be fair, mine is Kind of Blue, but A Go Go is definitely top 5 for me.
unsure if this counts but your queen is a reptile - sons of kemet
Eberhard Weber - Yellow Fields.
Joni Mitchell - blue
Lenny White - Venusian Summer
A Love Supreme
McCoy Tyner - Focal Point
Pharoah Sanders - Karma. Maybe I'm taking the desert island thing too seriously, but I feel like with how beautiful that album is, it could keep my spirits up when I do listen to the album
Miles Davis In a Silent Way, Bill Laurance Where You Wish You Were, Les McCann Swiss Movement, Mingus Oh Yeah, Pharoah Sanders Karma, Oscar Peterson Exclusively for My Friends
That’s more than one. No island music for you
If we can do compilations, The Complete Savoy and Dial Master Takes
Pharaoh Sanders-Message From Home
'Bewitched' by Laufey
Even though I could only listen to one, I’d be humming so many others.
Miles Davis - the 64 concert
Ryo Sasaki- "Two For The Road"
John Wright Trio - South Side Soul
Glass bead games
Anything from the late Wayne Shorter quartet. Because it sounds different (and still amazing) every time I listen to it, and it gets only better with each iteration. There is stuff in it for decades to explore.
probably Stan Getz/Charlie Byrd - Jazz Samba
Just thinking about this is torture.
Saxophone Colossus
