if i was stranded on deserted island (that had an electrical outlet) i would hopefully have these albums....err, i mean cd's, and of course, a cd player.

1. dream theater-awake
2. rush-hemishperes
3. steve morse-southern steel
4. steve morse-high tension wires
5. van halen-fair warning
6. journey-time3
7. joe satriani-flying in a blue dream
8. dixie dregs-california screaming
9. boston-boston
10.dream theater-scenes from a memory

what? nevermind brought the rock back? are you insane? do you know anything about rock history? nirvana killed rock! Many great rock bands stoped making records because of that grunge sh*t because they wanted to wait till the grunge die and then they ended up braking up.
anyway, I don't have any top 5 chart I'm just happy listening to the best rock album ever, apettite for destruction, the other gnr records, u2, aerosmith, acdc...real rock bands.

ps: and by the way, I consider pearl jam a million times better than nirvana. ten is one of my favourites records

2:Images and Words-Dream Theater
3:Rock and Roll Over-Kiss

Jimmy Bruno-Sleight of Hand (the master of be-bop guitar, he's got more tricks up his sleeve then VanHalen)

Jimi Hendrix-Any studio album ( not only was he a master guitar player but the Sh*t he recorded on a 8 track recorder was amazing, the reason I picked up the guitar, Thank you Jimi !!)

Van Halen- Fair Warning (it rocks, Eddie & Dave just work magic together)

Indigenous- my favorite new band, alot of history in his playin

Pink Floyd-Dark Side of the Moon (this album couldn't be more perfect, it really flows, creative mastery)
