The White Album isn't a song:D

Awesome thread. I shall return, with Looking at you by the MC5
In no particular order

1. Looking at You: MC5
2. Armaggideon Time: The Clash
3. Memphis Blues again: Dylan
4. Blitzkrieg Bop: Ramones
5. Little Musgrave: Planxty
6. Big eyed beings from Venus: Captain Beefheart
7. Easter Hymn from Cavaleiria Rusticana; Respeghi(? I think, I only know its so beautiful it makes me cry every time I hear it)
8. The heart of a Saturday night: Tom Waits
9. Backwater Blues: Bessie Smith (first heard it in 1980 and her voice still makes all the hairs stand up on the back of my neck)
10. Billie Holiday. Anything from her early years I know its cheating but its Billie actually I’ll settle on sweet and mellow with Lester Young on the sax
11. John Coltrane and Duke Ellington Ballads: Any song that doesn’t have a singer, but you need to throw in a beautiful woman, a bottle of good Frascati, and if possible a beach at sunset

I saw her in midtown Manhattan a couple of weekends ago. She is just as hot in person. No camara tricks.

Oh God! Not Mustang Sally. As a musician, I get asked to play that damn song more often than even Sweet Home Alabama. Sally get rid of the Mustang and buy a Little Red Corvette

[Twenty26Six]

Edgar Winter (?) - Stranglehold

Do you mean Ted Nugent (http://www.leoslyrics.com/listlyrics.php;jsessionid=8F94E8FC5353BB2459CFB97A6DE8908D?hid=M5ll0TjmPhQ%3D)?

NOW I'VE BEEN SMOKING FOR SO LONG
YOU KNOW I'M HERE TO STAY
GOT YOU IN A STRANGLEHOLD BABY
YOU BEST GET OUT OF THE WAY

(suitably humbled) yes...sorry, must have pulled a Jose the Special One (you know, make up my own version of history, laws of physics, etc)...wait, I sense a conspiracy against albinos, (insert favourite additional 'Special One' whinge/rant/snit fit)

No prob. I don't remember if it was an exclusive Nugent song anyway or from one of his bands. I'm not sure if he even sang the vocals on the track.

Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein[?]" is a good song as well.
