Wow.

No Roy Orbison or James Taylor, no Little Feat or Al Stewart, no mention at all of Hendrix’s “Little Wing” or “Hey Joe”?

Yeesh, who reads RS these days?

[buccaneer81]

Just, please...nobody say, “Beth.” That song is an embarrassment to KISS.

[DemforBush]

BTW, 10 ballads that, while maybe not the 10 greatest ever, are at least as good as anything RS's poll put out:

Hendrix - Little Wing

The Guess Who - These Eyes

Rolling Stones -Winter

Bob Dylan - Knocking on Heaven's Door

Rainbow - Catch the Rainbow

The Twilight Singers - The Lure Would Prove Too Much

The Eagles - Best of My Love

Pink Floyd - Stay

ZZ Top - Hot, Blue, and Righteous

Mazzy Star - Fade into You

No Styx? No Heart? Foreigner? No “Sarah, Smile”? No “Love will keep us alive”?
This list says more about RS readers than it does music.

I would pick, and I think there’s no question about it, Marty Robbins’ “El Paso.”
