That's a strange mix alright! Surprised by the Michael Jackson and Abba stuff. Ya never know about those kooky Brits.
ReplyDeleteI saw a top ten greatest guitar solos list from somewhere in Asia. Ranked at number #1 was Gilmore's Comfortably Numb solo. Hendrix didn't make the list. Sorry, I don't have the source ref. on that.
A great new album from The Raconteurs. They have a great website to check out.
ReplyDeleteMy God!!
ReplyDeleteI have Abba Gold but Queen 2 times in the same list?
Amazine, i've loved Queen before I was born.
I have 8 out of 10, does that make me a sheep who can only buy what is top of the charts?
