Or maybe Aladdin Sane (Ms Peony understands.....)
Yes!
I'd have a really hard time deciding between Aladdin Sane and the Ziggy albums.
Remastered versions with the extra disc included, natch.

i'm hearing ya, zphage = you mean something that exists outside of all yr other recs, something uber-solid + uncompromising you cd build a new society on? (but not cale's "music for a new society", which is pretty good in places, but not nearly solid enough)
TMT is a good call (rallizes wd be too) ... i'm more old skool + wd maybe think along the lines of "metal machine music" or "funhouse" or "white light/white heat" or "on the corner" or "half gentlemen / not beasts" (now THERE'S a boxset to end all boxsets) ... recently i've wondered whether haswell + hecker's "blackest ever black" may do the same trick for me, but too early to tell yet.
here's a few more, top of the head, that may do it for me ... "spem in alium" by tallis (not heard a bad recording of it, altho bet they exist), "black woman" by sonny sharrock, "radiance" or "octagon" 12"s by basic channel, anything by hijo kaidan or incapacitants, ornette's golden circle recs, terry riley's "all night flight", ayler's greenwich village LPs, john cage's "roaratorio" etc etc

If I was on my tod I think I'd want to laugh my ass off and hear some speaking voices rather than music so either "Importance Of Being Earnest" or Bill Hicks "Shock n Awe" or otherwise the BBC Homer would keep me busy.

Musically - "Closer" by Joy Division (Yes I'm so predictable)
More probably - a spoken word instruction box set on how to survive whilst stranded on a desert island.

For Your Pleasure ( but then someone mentioned Aladdin Sane so maybe on the spin of a coin between the two)
