[BigDawg69]

I think my head may explode if I heard

Pour Some Sugar on Me
followed immediately by
Margaritaville
followed then by
freebird

No doubt all great songs, but on the same disc, in possible succession.

 

[Pokerman]

yeah, but wouldn't the odds against them coming all in a row be 1000:1? 10*10*10?

 

[BigDawg69]

a good point, but is it a risk worth taking? yeah I think so . . . a good list.

Maybe they're trying to tell you something. You didn't call someone Nilla did ya?

 

[Rick DeVille]

This is a fucking album! You have to decide what order the tracks go in. You think the A&R guys draw the song titles out of a hat? The flow is the make or break of an album.

And this is a rock album. I don't fucking waltz to rock albums, do you?

Man do I envy you. I'd love to say I'd seen them live. I'm not all that old. I just grew up listening to my older brother's albums and can appreciate good music.

not that cool!

Re: songs

It's much cooler if you hit random play so that you aren't subjected to the compiler's ideas about the "flow" of the songs and are able to experience your own ideas about what should follow what.

 

[Rick DeVille]

Good choices except Duran Duran (on a rock album?) Gimmie Shleter, great track if only to hear Merry Clayton sing the support vocals. they spelt her name wrong on the original album. I have a copy of Merry Clayton's first album which she did Gimmie Shleter on it, produced by the Glimmer Twins.

AC/DC - It's a long way to the Top is my favorite
