Pinging to those from the previous threads. This is another one that has gotten better with age. Never liked it much as a kid, but I've noticed a trend where I've come to appreciate many of these classic rock songs with unique instrument tracks (the saxophone, in this case).

"A smile relieves a heart that grieves ..."

I'd also point out that I have refrained from posting official music videos of these songs as I've worked through this list. I made an exception here because the video itself has an interesting story behind it. The location where the first part of the video was filmed is the same pair of buildings at 96-98 St. Marks Place in the East Village of New York City that can be found on the cover of the 1975 Led Zeppelin album, Physical Graffiti.

Let me know if you'd like to be added or removed from the ping list!

Please add me to your list.

It's a great idea to see what others see as their Top 50.

While you rate Solsbury Hill as #50, it rates much higher on my list. No complaint about the rest.
