Greatest Song Ever Recorded

Whitney Houston - National Anthem (Super Bowl XXV 1991)

Are you kidding?lol

 

[TNJAKE]

You're correct. my bad

Agree a great one

Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ … took him 5 years to write, as many as 150 verses written and discarded, as many as 300 versions of it. Alan Light’s book about it is fascinating.

Pure Prairie League, ''I'll Fix Your Flat Tire Merle'' .... ''Picking To Beat The Devil'' ... to name a few by them...

Heard that performed by Root Boy Slim & the Sex Change Band at a bar in Rennsalaer in ‘77, including Psycho Chicken (takeoff on Talking Heads ‘Psycho Killer’ … fun band

Simple man was a song that carries a message my own mom would have, and likely did instill upon me. I can see her telling me these words every time I hear it.

The Eagles, ''James Dean''
The Outlaws, ''Gray Ghost'' ... Was written about the death of the Skynryd boys...

I'm a Southern Rocker mainly... but listen to all classic rock

38 Special just killed it at the Barton Co. Fair in Great Bend, KS with two drummers and four beer gardens. That's about all I can remember.

Wanna have some fun... Do a search on you tube for "Playing For Change''... You'll recognize a bunch of titles... The guy (Mark) did a fantastic job of recording artist from all around the world and then editing them to make the song... He started out doing street musicians ...

Here's one of the first ones... Grandpa Elliott is just to cool...

Pink Floyd..... comfortably numb

I particularly like the Live in Gdansk version. The drummer in the blue shirt is the happiest looking member of a band I've ever seen. It's as if he can't believe how fun it is to be playing with David Gilmour.

I'm not a big country music fan, but in that genre I have to call out these two (I don't know if these are the actual titles):

She's Rocking The Beer Gut, and

God is Great, Beer is Good, and People Are Crazy

 

[DougE]

For the old farts out there, they can still do it.

Louis Armstrong.. What a wonderful world to start the show. Then David Allen Coe with " If that aint country" to send everyone home..

Greatest Song Ever Recorded​

I think that means something different to each listener ...... especially over generations.

 

[pit 4 brains]

La Grange - ZZ Top.

Who else had a ZZ Top key chain ? I made mine in metal shop in 9th grade.. Best band ever.. We all miss Joe "Dusty" Hill..
I'm still stumblin' through the parking lot of an invisible 7-11..

I often wonder what would have become of zeppelin if Bonham hadn't died. Would they have just fizzled out over drug use, or would they have done even more great things?
