Post any one of your eight Desert Island Discs. Only one per post for arrowing purposes. Eight posts not just allowed, but encouraged.

I haven't decided on my full eight yet, but this is definitely one of them.

There you is.


You're not taking "Love on a farmboy's wages" to the Island then? easily and by far the best XTC recording.

Nah Ted, I have all those stored in me brain box. Know them upside down, inside out. Although those Dukes of Stratosphear fellas look mighty familiar.

You could well be right about 'Love on a Farmboys Wages'....

That sums up XTC for me - half their stuff leaves me thinking "this is probably really clever but it's just boring me."

The other half entrances me.

Those two do that, in that order.

Now we are six and this one is not some massive band everyone, or most of you, know but a collection of amateur musicians from Ipswich who manage to create inventive - and distinctive - instrumental rock music which is sometimes symphonic, sometimes eerie and haunting. It's East Anglian folklore and myths set to music. I think they deserve a plug, particularly as their guitarist actually bothered to respond when I sent him a message on Twitter



RFA


The magnificent seventh and this track packs an album's worth ideas into seven and a half minutes. It starts with an oriental theme and ferocious acoustic guitar, then heads off into space, underpinned by robust basslines and crisp drumming, with plenty of time changes and different moods thrown in.


RFA

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

The best Hendrix. Tells a great story, his singing is the best and the guitars are so sweet. Could have easily been Watchtower though.

Please Inform The Captain This is a Hijack - Robot Rampage in Luxury World

There's no isolated version of this. You have to go to 11 mins in. Perfect punk rock with some really lovely guitar parts in there.
