If you had to choose just one of each...

Post by Jonse »

...one BoC LP and one BoC EP, and you couldn't listen to any of the others anymore, which would you pick? Any particular reason why?

For me, it'd be Geogaddi and Hi Scores.
Okay...now...wait for fog machine.

Campfire Headphase because it perfectly encapsulates my childhood from beginning to end.

Play by Numbers because my niece is named Rachel Emily and I call her Remmy so I desperately want to hear Remmy Kid and because I would give anything to hear Infinite Lines of Colorful Sevens.

Campfire headphase and IABPOITC

Campfire headphase got me started with BoC, and I'm still somebody who listens to alot of ambient/lounge stuff, guess if I could only listen to 1 of their albums, it would be the most mellow 1.

And IABPOITC, just because the first 3 songs on it are some of BoC's best.

Geogaddi & IABPOITC

Edit: Although as soon as I wrote this I began to change my mind. Amazing how consistently good BoC's music is across all releases.

Definately Geogaddi and In a Beautiful Place...

IABPOITC is a no brainer.

Geogaddi slightly edges it over MHTRTC. I like Campfire Headphase but it doesn't have that third dimension that the other two possess. Geogaddi has a Wicker Man vibe to it that I really connect with, it's slightly sinister....

Geogaddi and Twoism..but is Twoism a true EP? That's an argument unto itself, I know it's often paraded as a "mini-album". Screw semantics, but if I had a backup it would be Hi Scores.
The preparation for a dive is always a tense time.

Geogaddi and Hi Scores. IABPOITC at a very close second, HS has the edge as it rocks more tracks!

Campfire headphase because I can't see myself ever becoming bored of it or not being able to listen to it in new ways, Geogaddi for much the same reason, but in a different flavor.

Would love to take EP's but they are too short. Imagining this is a desert Island discs scenario or something.
If 2 EP's = 1 Album it would be Campfire Headphase, Twoism and Trans Canada

LP: Geogaddi, no question about it, BOC's finest work by far...

For the EP that is a tougher cookie... I would go with In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country because there are some whimsical aspects to it that really speak to me.

In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country was the easiest choice I've ever had to make in my life. That EP's entire concept is stunning.

LP...Geogaddi is my favorite, but The Campfire Headphase was the LP I started with and is much more palatable for a plethora of moods. I don't think I could live without knowing the last two songs on that record exist.

MHTRTC and Twoism. I think it's fair to say they profoundly changed my life. All the other EPs and albums are amazing but because these were the first I think they had the biggest impact.
