Post by horacejesse » Wed Dec 27, 2006 12:34 pm

This has probably been done before, but at least it is easy for folks to weigh-in on. It does not have to be hard rock and roll, pop rock is fine too.Not looking for the 5 most important. I am interested in your particular favorites. I will go first and take my lumps. No particular order:1. Beatles2. Steely Dan3. Cars4. Fleetwood Mac5. Dire Straits

Lou Reed. Creedence Clearwater Revival. Dire Straits (Is there a better rock song than 'MTV' or 'Money for Nothing' with that great guitar riff? I don't think so.) That reminds me. I'm going to listen to that song right now.
