In keeping with the past few seasons, in 2019 we will run a new weekly segment on the website. This year the theme is 'Desert Island Discs' in which, for those unfamiliar with the Radio 4 show, a club member suggests the five records, luxury item, book, and personal memento they would keep with them if they found themselves stranded on a desert island.
Kicking us off is Mr Joe Figg:
Your five records?:
1. You Are Not Alone - Michael Jackson
2. Tired of Being Alone - Al Green
3. Lonely Avenue - Ray Charles
4. Leave Me Alone - Pink
5. Only the Lonely - The Motels
Why?
Irony.
What would be your luxury item and why?
A pillow - I need a lot of beauty sleep.
Your book and why?
The Green Mile - it's the greatest Stephen King novel ever.
Your personal memento and why?
A signed photo of the 1997/8 Arsenal double-winning team to remember the Arsenal good old days!
Thanks for kicking us off, Joe. Next Friday we'll have another Don with their desert island selections.
