3 isn't nearly enough. If I could only take the collected works of only 12 non-classical artists with me to a dessert island (mmm ice cream) I'd bring:
Richard Thompson (solo, with Linda, in Fairport Convention)
Chris Whitley (R.I.P.)
Tori Amos
Elvis Costello
Grant-Lee Phillips / Grant Lee Buffalo
Tom Waits
Heather Nova
Beatles
Pink Floyd
Aimee Mann
Michael Penn
Concrete Blonde
. . . and I'd bitterly miss my Peter Himmelman, Bruce Cockburn, Kate Bush and Happy Rhodes CDs
