I actually saw Johnny Cash playing on table one last night !
OK so it wasnt the real one , but It did make me wonder what music everyone listen's to. And if you were asked what would be your "Desert Island Discs"
Post your All time top 12 here
No doubt some of the younger members will post tracks that I have never heard of !!
but anyway, In no particular order these are mine, which is subject to change because according to my son I have actually got hundreds of tracks in my top 5 .. let alone top 12 !!
Dionne Warwick - Walk on By
Lou Reed - Perfect Day (Transformer - Original version)
The Doors - Riders on the Storm
Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven
Beatles - Things we said Today
Smiths - How soon Is Now
The Who – Won't get Fooled Again
Lyle Lovett – Just the Morning
R.E.M – Loosing My Religion
Roxy Music – Virginia Plain
Jimi Hendrix – Voodoo Chile
Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody

Not really my top ten, but I'm sure you'll get the idea:
King for a day - Green Day
Call me - Blondie
Queen of Clubs - KC and the Sunshine Band
I'd rather Jack - The Reynolds Girls
Vote with a Bullet - Corrosion of Conformity
Straight to Hell - The Clash
The Joker - Steve Miller Band
The winner takes it all - ABBA
Raise your hands - Bon Jovi
and, somewhat obviously,
The Ace of Spades - Motorhead

Bill Withers? Where the bloody hell did that one come from? Lilfrog are you sure your mum didn't finish your message off for you?
And is that Rob Giles the same one who used to work in the Co-op in Rochdale? If his singing is anything like his adding up he'll be back diddling me out of 23p before he knows it.

Dear Jockney,
Classic shmassic. Mind you, considering your list - presumably taken from the 'Drove all night' compilation given away by the Sunday Mail - your response is unsurprising. the only reason the young should be made aware of such mediocre nonesense is so they don't repeat the same gutwrenching mistakes (tee hee...that should get him going).
Please feel free to launch an equally mundane personal attack on me, I shan't be offended.
Unless, of course, you somehow crowbar your love of 'Smoke on the water', 'Freebird', 'Rockin in the Free World', et al into the conversation.
Then I think I might just pop.
Yours, in anticipation
Baldyman (holding a lighter and swaying in an ironic fashion)

He He , thanks for your input Baldy , and yes The 3 tracks you mentioned would be other favourites of my own eclectic taste. Sorry if my chosen tracks are a little "safe" for you. My own kids have grown up with quite an appriciation of all kinds of music. I'm sorry that your own tastes would be so narrow, i feel that you may have missed out mate. It's a shame that you were unable to share your own favourites with us.
Thank you for your concern however, but rest assured I like and appreciate music from many genres.
now ............where did I put that Air Guitar ??
