"Green Onions" - Booker T and the MGs. Never fails to bring a smile.

Thanks for the link, Rte66, I'll definitely visit that thread.

And check the little note that Rummy left for you on this thread. And my new musical tagline, partly an antidote to your Sooner s...tuff. ;-)

I share it. I'm famous for borrowing CDs from the library, copying what I like and returning them cleaned and in better condition than when I borrowed them.

It's MY tax dollars & donations that pay for them in the first place. I'm not stealing; only borrowing a few chords here and there. ;)

… the Moody Blues.

Ah, common ground. You’re a Prog-rock fan I bet.

Let me guess, Days of Future Passed is your favorite. That was a result of their label’s wanting a rock version of "New World Symphony", you know?

For religious music, my choice was 'How Great Thou Art.'

Love that one.

Actually, though "Days of Future Passed" is a great album, it is not my absolute favorite Moodies' work. I have heard about the rock version of "New World Symphony" that the label wanted, and am very glad the label didn't get its way! One of rock music's great songs is on that album. I do like their very early work, but I think "Seventh Sojourn" is my favorite. There is absolutely no weak link on that album.

I miss Ray Thomas. I wish I could find his solo albums on CD. He wasn't all that great of a flute player, but he wrote some wonderful songs and I loved hearing him sing them.

I am indeed a progressive rock fan. I really am planning on discovering some early Genesis, though I think the first couple of albums after Peter Gabriel left the group are very good.
