I've never seen Sandinista! vinyl in this city and it was in great condition, but I had no money and knew it would be gone if I didn't get it that day. So, my friend tells me that she'll put half down on it so I wouldn't lose the chance to have it. It was one of the kindest things anyone had done for me, because she could tell how much it meant to me.
I think this is a really great story. I enjoyed reading it. Not everyone would understand how much something like that could mean to someone. Are you still friends with that girl?

trick question.

I'd buy a gun, and a dog.

Isn't this the same as "your top 15 albums" or "15 albums you'd take with you to a deserted album"?

"chosen with both variety and essential-ness in mind. not necessarily my top 15 of all time."

Hmm... probably these:

Strapping Young Lad - City
Death - The Sound of Perseverance
Killing Joke - Democracy
Blackalicious - The Craft
Faith No More - Angel Dust
Aesop Rock - Labor Days
Elliott BROOD - Ambassador
The Smalls - My Dear Little Angle
Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness
Gruvis Malt - ... With the Spirit of a Traffic Jam
Enslaved - Below the Lights
Opeth - Deliverance
Devin Townsend - Terria
I Monster - Neveroddoreven
Portishead - Dummy

Those were just off the top of my head and ones that I primarily use to enhance or change moods, therefore they take precedence over other albums I would consider to be my "favourites".

I don't call people ignorant very often, but yo: you're ignorant. This is like saying Straight Outta Compton isn't essential because it sounds like every other West Coast album of that time. ATCQ were one of the first groups to pioneer the use of jazz samples in hip hop, if it wasn't for them and their contemporaries you'd still be listening to leather-clad proto-boy bands rapping over Donna Summers and James Brown.

Thievery Corporation - The Mirror Conspiracy
