Dead Can Dance - Toward The Within is one those albums that has been a stronghold on that list of albums to bring if stranded on a desert island. This live album is kind of like a best of (minus a few classics). The tracks are pretty evenly split between Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry songs. It is just such a beautiful album and the live versions of the songs capture a depth of sound that they never reached in the studio. They do a wonderful job blending world, ambient, goth, and ambient elements into their own sound. I have been listening to this quite a bit lately and just love it. There was a sister video released with the album that documented the same show. Here are a few of my favorites.
Rakim
Cantara
American Dreaming
