6 Great Songs From the 70's Volume 3




I found a lot of really good songs from the 70's so I am keeping this theme going. For the most part, these 70's lists so far are mostly songs that were of the lighter rock variety. I guess because that is all I was really exposed to. It was only later that I would look into the harder stuff from the 70's.







6 Great Songs From the 70's Volume 2




Every time I do these decade themed posts, I always think that this is the best decade. Each one has a special place for me. The 70's were right before I started high school so I wasn't choosing a lot of my own music, just what was fed to me over the radio. Even still, I have a lot of great memories of some of these songs.

Friends Top List Series (Todd Nemphos All Time Top 20)




Todd is another longtime friend that I met while working at Listening Booth back in the mid 80's. He's always leaned towards the classic rock side but also a more introspective side. I love when my friends write little blurbs for each song. This is how you do it. Love it.

Greg and I have been friends for 25 years. We first met when we both worked at Listening Booth at White Marsh Mall. Greg leans towards pop metal but our music tastes meet more towards straight pop rock. Great list.

6 Great Songs From the 80's Volume 5





I heard a Hoodoo Gurus song today and got me thinking about another 80's post. The 80's were a great time for music. Some of it was my age at the time but a lot of it was just some really great bands.

Friends Top List Series (David Koch All Time Top 52)





My good friend David Koch decided to do his all time top 52 since doing a Top 10 was so difficult. I like it. If you can't narrow down to 10, do 52. He said he started listening to music in 1996. I couldn't believe that until I realized he was 14 in 1996. Man do I feel old. Here they are.

6 Great Songs From the 70's Volume 1





In keeping with my "6 for a Decade" theme, here is my first for the 70's. The 70's always remind me of AM radio and I guess whatever my parents had on. It was always the lighter stuff that I guess was being played on AM radio at the time. FM Radio was the MTV of that era and played Rock and Roll. It wasn't until later that I discovered hard rock from that era.

Friends Top List Series (Jeff Walter All Time Top 10)





I used to hang out with Jeff back in the Old School Freddies days. He even helped me DJ. Jeff always had a good music sense and always kept it a little left of center, It was a good mix of my pop leanings.
