The first TimeZoneOne Blog from the new guy

My taste in music is a mix of old and new but as a child of the 70’s it is a little biased towards the old. My top 10 Desert Island albums are:

  1. Veedon Fleece - Van Morrison
  2. Time and Tide  - Split Enz
  3. Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan
  4. Natty Dread - Bob Marley and the Wailers
  5. Buddy Guy and Junior Wells Play the Blues (highly recommend for classic Chicago Blues)
  6. Crosby, Stills and Nash (1st album)
  7. Hejira - Joni Mitchell
  8. Woodface - Crowded House
  9. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 - Midnight Oil
  10. Pretenders - The Pretenders

I like a lot of other music and mark me as Stones versus Beatles although Lennon and Co. did write some stuff. Tom Waits is an American icon with possibly the roughest growl in all of music. Check out his take on advertising in “Step Right Up” from the album Small Change.
