Bruce, I love a good list! Now that I've discovered Spotify, I can do some listening. I'm not sure I can narrow my list, but I'm eager to see how eveyone weighs in.
P.S. Did I tell you we own a piano that once belonged to the band Steppenwolf?
It always gives me the thrills to see lists that put Led Zep on top. They are my favorite band of all time! Your list is wonderful. Thanks for mentioning some songs that may not be recognized by many but definitely have what it takes to be remembered. Acoustic lovers (playing with guitar picks for instance) will surely appreciate this post. Great list!
