Geocache Description:


I remember sitting around as a young teen & someone would always ask " if you were stuck on a desert island which 5 LPs would you take ?" . It changed in later years to 8Tracks, cassettes, Cds and got harder all the time to answer as your music taste evolved. Somebody even asked it last summer when I was at the campfire with my fishing buddies. My 1st LP was by Petula Clarke,  because & really liked the song "Downtown". We lived in a small town that had no record store at the time so I had to wait for a family shopping trip to Kirkland Lake so we could find it in the big city. I think their population was about 5,000 at the time. Anyway I fould the LP & convinced Dad to buy me one more because "High Tides & Green Grass" by the Rolling Stones had just been released and they had it in stock. Sorry to say I never played Petula's album much after I listened to the Stones. WOW I really liked it & that was the start of me purchasing thousands of recording since, of many different types of music.  The Beatles had just started but I was never really a fan , always a Stones guy. This series will be my top 10 for a road trip & it was REALLY hard to only pick 10 !

There was a used music store in North Bay & sometimes we'd venture the 4 hour round trip to buy new music. I walked in the store one day & a John Prine recording was playing. It was instant love. I bought 3 LPs that day, two used & one new all of Prine. I've listened to his tunes many, many times over the years & they never get old.  Great Days is like a greatest hits but I like every tunes. I did see him live, doing a acustic set, at a small venue in Bellingham during the 80s. Very fun & funny road trip but that's a story for another day.

This series has 10 caches. The 1st six will all have clues so you can locate the seventh & then there are three bonus (tracks) caches.

Bring a pen, watch for wildlife & be nice to the enviroment
