17 - at least three of us have this on our lists now.
ReplyDeleteJimi Hendrix's National Anthem - Mike and I saw a guy play that on a modified bass clarinet (?)... he had it hooked up to a distortion pedal or something, pretty cool.
I'm usually afraid to admit it due to some reactions I've gotten in the past, but I hate the Rolling Stones too.
I know Davy had a hard time cutting songs down, but I really like the approach he took, which guarantees that your most loved groups will be well represented. Also, I'm with him on his whole "no way" list. Very polarizing groups, and I just happen to come down on the no thanks side of the fence as well.
ReplyDeleteOh, and the audio on the third Chicago song, "No Tell Lover," is not great. It was the best one I could find, and since it's a less well-known song, I wanted to include something. At least, I'd never heard it before, but I could be alone in that. I'd never heard "Never My Love" before either, and that song's on three lists already.
