Based on the original BBC radio program from 1942 that asked "if you were to be cast away alone on a desert island, which eight gramophone records would you choose to have with you, assuming of course, that you had a gramophone and an inexhaustible supply of needles".

Pretty f&rkin' hard to choose just eight albums but I've given it a go. Hope it never happens because I'd probably get sick of these awesome albums after just a few weeks - then what!?

1. Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny

2. Faith No More - The Real Thing

3. Megadeth - Rust in Peace

4. Alice in Chains - Dirt

5. In Flames - The Jester Race
