Was just thinking about them today - my speakers are getting dusty and perhaps Mountain can fix that …

 

[LouC]

Jack Bruce/Leslie West version of Theme from an Imaginary Western

 

[LouC]

Also, Flowers of Evil was an interesting commentary of the plight of returning veterans before that was talked about...

 

[DejaVue]

Master of Puppets is the best metal song ever so it probably should be in the top 25 all songs ever.

Bonus points for this version played live in England rain.
"You know the show is successful when the crowd sings the guitar solo"

It's hard to believe that nobody mentioned Derek and the Dominos (Clapton and Duane Allman) 'Layla'....it's a better song than over 20 of those listed in the OP. 'Sweet Home Alabama' by Lynard Skynard is also a great song along with their hit 'Freebird' which was on the list.

 

[Warstud]

First off the Beatles - dont deserve to have 4 songs on the list - terrible song writing.
Bob Dylan - cannot sing - pretty good at song writing.
Notorious BIG - Seriously
The Who - love them...... but they have alot better songs than "My Generation"
The Clash - Never heard London Calling

One of my favs is Tired Angels, written after the death of Jimi Hendrix.

Neil Young had some awesome songs! My favorites were from the Buffalo Springfield.

Down by the River - Killer live TV performance

 

[ARCOgraphite]

Big fan of the Toccata and Fugue in D Minor myself; Still a crowd favorite 300+ years after it was released.

I am not sure if J.S. even composed the Tocatta, Doesn't really sound Bach-ish

Bach? Give me the celebrated music of heaven where angels ride about upon the puffy clouds.
I much prefer Abbado's blazing fast metre and light direction. Start at 5 min 53 seconds in

Best 25 songs of all time? Please (uttered in disgust); as if humanity can ever agree on anything. I can't even limit myself to my "favorite" 25 songs in any genre, let alone "of all time".

This thread's contribution to society? The ability to be never ending ...

 

[Nick1994]

The author either had a brain injury and forgot the last 30-40 years, or wrote the list 30-40 years ago.

 

[ARCOgraphite]

Oops ! Left the Cat out !

(Also, let us not leave out Where do the Children Play)

 

[SubieRubyRoo]

No Neil Young? List is BS...

He pulled his music from Spotify voluntarily…

Yes, but perhaps a few members might check out a song or 2 they are not familiar with. Ya never know...

To people that say good music died in the 70’s

Heck yeah I love The Cat! 1966 from his "freakbeat" days.

Kind've reminds bit a bit of Rod Stewart.

 

[Nesterenko]

Ok

Tumbling Dice for me, especially the live version on Love You Live

Yes, that's a top 5,000 maybe along with that useless "Happy".
