While my Guitar Gently Weeps - Beatles
Sheep - Pink Floyd
Can’t You Hear Me Knocking - Stones
My Sweet Lady - John Denver

The White Album, Animals, and Sticky Fingers get the heaviest replays throughout my life.

AC/DC It's a long way to the top(if you want to rock and roll).

What's not to like? Early AC/DC with Bon Scott and bagpipes. The call and response between the bagpipes and Angus is glorious. 3 chord power rock at its best.

LINK

Kashmir by Led Zeppelin. Greatest guitar riff they ever performed, don't believe me, just ask Jimmy. The riff was just a tuning cycle but fricking intense. The mixed meters and (uncharacteristic) understated drumming of Bonham make this one of Zeppelin's best and my fav.

LINK

The Who Behind Blue Eyes. A template for my teenage angst lived behind blue eyes, literally and figuratively.

LINK

Bob Dylan's words Jimi Hendrix's experience. A simple ballad that Jimi brought a sense of drive and urgency to.

LINK

The greatest piece of music ever written is Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125, the 4th movement/Choral. I won't bother to link it because no tOT heathens will care, except maybe TulaneLSU since it is Ode to Joy.

I'll probably get downvoted into oblivion, but I think Corey Wells of Three Dog Night beats Sam.

A day in the life by the Beatles is up there

So is bohemian Rhapsody

For "newer" songs, I would list Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance and These Days by Foo Fighters

"See Me Feel Me" by The Who is a favorite.

When I 1st picked up an Acoustic 18 years ago I wanted to one day be able to play "Thunder Road" by Bruce Springsteen.

I haven't listened to any Springsteen in that 18 years,except if I play "Thunder Road" now.
