Stranded: Rock and Roll for a Desert Island

Marcus, Greil

In 1978, Greil Marcus asked twenty writers on rock-including Dave Marsh, Lester Bangs, Nick Tosches, Ellen Willis, and Robert Christgau-a question: What one rock-and-roll album would you take to a desert island? The resulting essays were collected in Stranded , twenty passionate declarations to such albums as The Rolling Stones' Beggars Banquet , the Ramones' Rocket to Russia , Something Else by the Kinks, and more. Universally revered as the ur-text of rock journalism, Stranded is an indispensable classic.
