Thanks for your feedback...but talk about carpet bombing....
Some comments on your opus:
1) Aerosmith has got to have something on the list. Sweet Emotion is a venerable choice, however, later in this thread Our Own Irrascible Brit Peter suggested the version of Walk This Way done with Run/DMC. Tough choice...
2) Karn Evil 9: My personal all time favorite. But which Impression? The whole suite will tie up a CD in and of itself. I have a special place reserved for EL&P, don't worry!
3) Boston. Foreplay/Long Time. Definite possibility!
4) Jethro. Yes, will need to be in there somewhere, but Thick as a Brick, ferchrissakes? Yes it is interesting, but it has to rank as Ian Anderson's only real blunder in his career.
5) Supertramp. Agreed, there is some really fine stuff on that album. Not sure that it's top 10 stuff, tho.
6) The Beatles. Of course there must be something from the Beatles in the list somewhere. But what?!? BeeP agnoizes about this later in the thread, and I agree completely with his statements.
