Following Zebbo's example I will be having Genesis box set 1970-1975. The only problem being should a female companion be swept up there's nothing of shall we say a "romantic" nature within .

Can't answer this because what I like best about music is the sheer variety of it . (You may say this is a cop out, but whatever I chose, I'd get bored of).

Gotta agree with TB on this, I don't think that there could be a single piece of music that could stand up to being the one and only.
However in the spirit of the game I'd probably go with Miles Davis "Bitches Brew". Sophisticated, complex, satisfying and very lo..oo..oo..ong.
Technic SL-P1200ASC>>SSP>>P50sa>>SSP>>A80>>LS6>>Royd Prior>>> and on the whole very pleased about it.

I think that it would have to be the Rollng Stones, Exile on main street.
It's a double album and has kept me happy for forty years, so I think it will continue to do so for some time to come.

Abolutely, I got in from work the other day and the only disc that was going to hit the spot was Prince - Purple Rain, how far from Nat King Cole could you get? 8-)

Reason is self explanatory if you have a soul.
Interesting. I've not heard Pletnev's Mozart.
I've just ordered 2 CDs of his 9, 20, 23 & 24 Piano concerti.
I'll send you the bill if it's no good, Doc. :P

Just looked at Wiki, it seems he is a (alleged) pedophile living in Thailand now. :shock: Well according to all the rumours so was Tchaikovsky, human nature is weird, creates brilliance along with perversion.
