I can't pick a favorite Floyd song, they are like my kids. I am both surprised and happy how many Floyd fans there are on this site...guess I am not alone. Lol.

Led zep favorite is "babe I'm gonna leave you." Amazing track most people don't listen to, because it wasn't on their best selling albums. I think it's on their 1st album, but could be wrong.

Good bands here, listened to 3eb and sublime a good bit. 90s includes TOOL..the greatest...as well as Soundgarden, rage, nirvana, STP, Deftones, early KORN which was actually great, primus, radiohead, clutch, system of a down, etc..etc.. the 90s was a great decade musically IMO, much better than any since.

My favorite Black Sabbath song is N.I.B.. I love the jam parts in between singing and the casual way that the lyrics "My name is Lucifer. Please take my hand." are sung. Cracks me up every time.

My favorite song by The Who is "So Sad About Us". I love the guitar work and it's a great break-up song. It helped get me through a few back in the day.

My favorite Jimi Hendrix song is "Izabella" as performed at Woodstock, but it's really close. The only thing that keeps "One Rainy Wish" from being my favorite is that it doesn't go back to the middle part again before it ends.

Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

The Who - The Kids Are Alright & Behind Blue Eyes, with honorable mention to Bell Boy - gotta love Keith

Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing & The Wind Cries Mary

Lou Reed - Andy's Chest. Love the bizarre seemingly acid induced lyrics.

Sublime - Doin' Time & their cover of Scarlet Begonias

Zeppelin: Battle of Evermore (my personal favorite), Babe I'm Going to Leave You, Ten Years Gone (hugely underrated song), Tangerine ("Thinking how it used to be, does she still remember times like these?"), Bron-Y Aur Stomp, What Is and What Should Never Be, Over the Hills and Far Away.

I could go on for a while, but these are some off the top of my head; hard to just pick one.

What a lineup...incredible amount of talent in those 4 bands.

AiC was my favorite band until layne died. Jerry cantrell is a very good guitar player and musician.

Soundgarden didn't put out an amazing number of hits, but could be the best front man all time...R.I.P.. what a 4 or 5 octave range?

Pearl jam ten is one of the best albums ever made. Put it on, press play. Not a bad track. Garden and black are truly top shelf, and will be classics. Later albums weren't nearly as solid, but had great songs. Elderly woman behind the counter,immortality, etc..

Nirvana never got a chance to show what they had, Cobain died, grohl moved on, not a foo fighters fan. Nevermind started the grunge craze though, when glam rock had nearly killed rock and roll. Huge.

AiC u unplugged is gold. Pure gold.

Many AiC fans dont know about the Mad Season album called "above". Only 1 track, river of deceit, ever made it to the radio. Title track and others, as well as river, are good though. It was a solo project by Layne Staley and members of other Seattle bands. Check it out.

I love the drop. Many of Zeppelin's songs have folk elements, and the blues, at first, but they always have the best drops into classic rock riffs. Not to mention the lyrics. Nice to find a kindred Zeppelin soul.

I celebrate the guys' entire catalogue.

Those 4 guys blended into something that's simply unparalleled.

Even tracks that I thought that I didn't really like, when I go back and listen closely there are so many little subtle fills by JP or amazing thunder from Bonzo I can't really dislike them. I wasn't really a fan of The Lemon Song, but after listening to all of the little nuggets that Page puts in, I end up liking it too.
