I saw Zeppelin in ‘77 and my ears are still ringing to this day.

Have you seen the Page - Plant DVD Unledded?

They do versions of The Rain Song, Since I've Been Loving You and Kashmir better than the orininals.

It's on YouTube if you care to check it out.

Johnny Rivers belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

He sure does. Secret Agent Man was a classic all of it's own. I like "I washed my hands in Muddy Water" also. "Memphis" was a classic too.

The Traveling Wilburys End of the line, Kansas with Carry On my wayward son, Boston More than a feeling {I was in bootcamp when a guy from Lynn, Mass was talking about a group he knew fixing to top the charts}, Bruce Springsteen Dancing in the dark {Blaster Mix only}, REO SPEEDWAGON and the rare video of "I can't fight this feeling" from craddle to grave scenes, The Eagles Doolin Dalton/Desperado Hotel California The Last Resort.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Free Bird, Joe South Don't it make you wanna go home, LOBO almost all his music, Johnny Horton, Marty Robbins, Linda Rondstat {yea I know I hate her politics too}, Peter, Paul, and Mary, Meat Loaf, Pink Floyd Dark side of the moon my favorite all time album especially Brain Damage LOL

Vince Gill, Ricky Skaggs, We Five You were on my mind {that woman could really sing but quit the group early after that hit} Karen Carpenter Goodbye to love & Superstar {no ones came close to her voice}, Don McClean American Pie, Vincent.

Anybody remember this one? Gunhill Road's Back when my hair was short LOL. How about BJ Thomas and Rock and Roll Lulabye? The song where the back ups sound like The Beach Boys but aren't and Duane Eddy's guitar playing.

Jud Strunk Daisy a Day, Air Supply, Foreigner, New Riders of the Purple Sage, Pure Parrie League, & Alabama.

Marshall Tucker Band {side note on them they hired the keyboard player and asked him if he could play a flute. He said yes and had never picked one up} LOL. The Charlie Daniels Band, Billy Joel Piano Man, Keeping the faith, River of Dreams, Eric Clapton Layla, Wonderful Tonight, Tears in Heaven, Promises.

Bob Seger brings back a lot of memories. I remember being on Liberty in Genoa Italy and walking past the night clubs hearing Mainstreet loud and clear, Against The Wind a song many of us at some point realize in our lives while it may not be jet setting and traveling but just life in general. Kansas again with Dust in the wind there's an interesting story behind Kerry Livgren the man who wrote it and Carry on. Lot's of great music out there by a lot of persons rarely gets mentioned. But those I listed were ones I grew up on.
