1 Pat Metheny, Bright Size Life
2 JS Bach, S Richter The Well Tempered Clavier
3 Steve Lukather, All Is Well That Ends Well

I would certainly hide in my suitcase some Schubert and Beethoven by Andras Schiff, Giant Steps and A Love Supreme by Coltrane, Shostakovich 10th Symphony by Mariss Jansons, and Photo Finish by Rory Gallagher. A Qobuz subscription would be mandatory as well...

AC/DC: Back in Black. Amazing effort by a band that had just lost its singer. I’m still amazed at the riffs the Young brothers came up with.

Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon. Awesome album for listening in the dark with headphones on.

Alice in Chains: Dirt. Grunge at its best. Personal, powerful, complicated musically. but it works, quite well.

I would pick any random 3 albums, play them a couple of times, and throw them on the bin.
I would then turn the system into a heating device, and sit and enjoy listening to silence and nature.

pfff,
this is an impossible question - for me - as I keep listening to new music while my taste involves. I very rarely listen to my "system" with "same" albums, except when I need to test something (of course)
