I can’t “get up”. I am paralyzed.

Thanks, Chuck...what's up?

I figured this thread would be a hoot, LOL!!!

[Las Vegas Ron]

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers “Refugee”

Here Comes My Girl

[Hot Tabasco]

“Yummy Yummy Yummy” by the 1910 Fruitgum Company......an all time wedding favorite.

[bonfire]

The best!

[Cboldt]

I’m taking a 2nd pick. Dead Egyptian Blues. I’m partial to Trout Fishing in America’s take on that. Bernice Lewis does a fine job on it too.

You won’t believe me.

I'd love to hear it, send me some links if you can.

I like just about everything, except rap.

Queen: "Don't Stop Me Now" from the album "Jazz"
Vintage 1979 British Rock and Roll

I saw Trout Fishing in America once...ages ago. Interesting, I must say.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Fat Bottom Girls

Big fat Freddie (_!_)....she was such a knarley lady...she made a bad boy out of me....

[Migraine]

America: “Don’t Cross the River (if you can’t swim the tide)”

And, very obscure, but powerful:

Gypsy (group out of Minneapolis, c 1970):
“Gypsy Queen I and II”
“Dead and Gone”
“Late December”
“Tomorrow is the Last to Be Heard”

[mcmuffin]

If it got to be so much I’d turn to Lionel Richie, I think I’d just jump off a cliff.

OK, now that I’ve insulted (!) your choice, have a shot at mine:

Rolling Stones - Jumping Jack Flash
Steppenwolf - Magic Carpet Ride
Strawberry Alarm Clock - Incense and Peppermints

Old fart child of the 60s’...oh yah ;-)

LOL Bob. I'd be jumpin' with ya!

Excellent choices too!

[PaleoBob]

Great tune. ...especially the live version on Rock of Ages with a full horn section. The tuba boogies like nobody’s biz.

---

“...and the best horn men in New York City to do it.”

I was actually at one of the Rock of Ages shows at Academy of Music—seems like another lifetime ago.

[campaignPete R-CT]

i listen to The Kingston Trio

REO Speedwagon Let Me Ride (When they were a real Rock band)

Remember this...Like You Do

Or .... Being Kind

[trappedincanuckistan]

Led Zeppelin. The greatest band of all time.

[Mr. Mojo]

Oh man, lucky you. I’d have loved to have seen them, especially during their (’68 - ‘72) prime like you did. But I started going to concerts right around the time they called it quits (in ‘76).
