an unanswerable question brought to you by my new blank iphone

What one (music) album do I need to carry around with me all the time? (Three, if you can't pick one.)

De La Soul "Three Feet High and Rising"

[moominmolly]

Yes!

A friend insists "Paul's Boutique" is necessary to life because of the song "Hey Ladies" but I am uncertain. "Hey Ladies" is astounding but I don't love the rest of the album as much.

I still don't know how many times the Batmobile sprung a flat.

Paul Simon - Graceland

And to fill out three...
Zoe Keating - (any of hers)
Something beepy and electronic, like The Prodigy - Experience

[moominmolly]

Check! :)

For me, it would be Mr.Bungle "California" or Grandaddy's "Sumday"

Whaaaaat? Songs about suicide and adroids. Good times, good times.

Yay new things and androids.

For my third album, I'm gonna say "the Essential Bessie Smith".

I feel it should not be surprising that I thought you were referring to a photo album, until I read the comments.

Also!  I may have music for you!

[moominmolly]

No but it is awesome!

[beah]

Are we talking music? If you can only have one, Graceland. If two, add Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Everything else is gravy.

That said, "Raising Sand" by Alison Krauss and Robert Plant is pretty freaking amazing.

Edited to read "music album". Beatles! Hadn't thought of that.

I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised by "Raising Sand". Good choice.
