Wow! I don't believe it! Something to do with DNA himself! I think I'd better go and sit down for a while...

Desert Island Disks

by Mat "Colin" Page

Some time in the year 1993 a certain Mister Douglas Noel Adams was asked the hypothetical question "If you were sent away to a desert island, which eight records, one book and one luxury would you take with you?" His reply was as follows:

His Records:

'Man of Mystery' by The Shadows
Ligeti's Reqium from 2001
'Drive My Car' by The Beatles
The Sanctus from Bach's B minor Mass
The Schubler Chorale No. 5 by Bach
'Hearts and Bones' by Paul Simon
Bach's Italian Concerto
'All of Me' by Ella Fitzgerald

His Book:

An omnibus of P.G. Wodehouse Golfing Stories

His Luxury:

A 1930's left handed Martin D28 guitar.

Well, that's all well and good, isn't it. But not particularly related to that well known, but innacurately named, Trilogy. I would therefore like to present to you my Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy Desert Island Disks.

The Records:

'Hot Patootie' from The Rocky Horror Show by Eddie.
'Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (Not)' by Marvin.
'Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head' by Rob McKenna.
'Happiness' by Colin.
'Falling' the theme from Twin Peaks by A Sperm Whale.
'Think' by Vroomfondel and Majikthise.
'It's not easy Being Green' by Prosthetic Vogon Jeltz.
'Paperback Writer' by Oolon Collumphid.

The Luxury:

A Towel

The Book:

Isn't it obvious?

Happy listening.
