[horseless carriage]

The Animals.

 

[KSav]

The Beatles, The Who, Eric Clapton, and Jimmy Buffett,for sure. There'd be others, but that's my off-the-top-of-my-head reaction.

 

[Paco Dennis]

"The Marriage of Figaro" is not just an opera—it’s a celebration of human emotion and musical ingenuity. It’s the kind of work that reveals new layers with every listen, making it perfect for a deserted island where you’d have plenty of time to savor its brilliance.

 

[ChiroDoc]

Almost impossible to choose, but if I had to, it might be most anything by Maurice Ravel. I'm especially fond of his string quartet (1903).

 

[Oldeagle66]

None.......Just good books and enjoy the quiet.

 

[OneEyedDiva]

Assuming I'd have my phone with me, my entire music catalog would be with me via You Tube Music. It would be hard to choose if I had to narrow it down. But if so Michael E, my dear friend Hunter Hayes (of N.J.), Maxwell, Mandrill, Maze f/Frankie Beverly, my favorite hour plus House music mixes that my son did and my own music.

Bring my banjo and make my own

 

[Pendle]

Simply Red, Chris Rea, The Hollies, Rolling Stones, Dave Brubeck

As much Jazz as allowable. (Miles, 'Bird', Coltrane, Metheny, etc.)
Other than that:

Ludwig van Beethoven
Tom Waits
Steely Dan
Joni Mitchell
Merle Haggard

Classical—Bach, Mozart, Ralph Vaughn Williams, Vivaldi

More current— Beatles, Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot, and Neil Diamond

And—*of course*— The Beach Boys!! Lol

Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Beatles

 

[David777]

 

[Knight]

An inspirational one like this.

 

[johndoe]

No music. The sound of wind rustling the leaves and crashing waves for me.

 

[Dave03]

The Charlie Brown Christmas album.

 

[Mr. Ed]

Electric Prunes, never know when you might need them

 

[hollydolly]

I would take Beatles, Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead and Gipsy Kings

What music would you take with you on a deserted island?​

If I was about 30 and Rita Hayworth was with me, we would make our own music., but I'd need an instruction book, 'cause it's been a long time.
