I've been readin these lists and thought i'd have a go.
I won't put numbers on cos that just confuses me, one day i'd prefer one song to another or vice versa depending on the mood i'm in,
anyway

Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Chile (great intro)other songs like Hey Joe and Purple Haze rock too

Eric Clapton - Have you ever loved a woman (with D&the Dominoes) also love Crossroads, White Room and Well Alright from when he was in Blind Faith.

Lynyrd Skynyrd - I know a little. (great riffs) Tuesdays Gone and Freebird roll with it too.

Fleetwood Mac - Man of the world (amazing lyrics) love the outro in The Chain too and the guitar in Oh Well

Led Zeppelin - Stairway to heaven (top song) the Zeppelin knew what it was all about, The MUSIC!!!Whole lotta love and Kashmir, black dog etc. etc.

Deep Purple - Black Night love Smoke on the Water, Hush and Perfect Strangers too even though perfect strangers riff is similar to Kashmir.

The Rolling Stones - Paint it Black (just does it for me) (Top Band)

The Who - Who are You (who the !****! are you) (they don't make bands like they used to!)

Ocean Colour Scene - Hundred Mile City (great cruising tune)
most of O.C.S.'s music gets my vote.

The Animals - House of the Rising Sun

Seahorses - Love is the Law (love the Intro)

Stereophonics - Thousand Trees (lyrics are top notch)

Taste - Whats Going On (Rory Gallagher - irelands answer to Jimi)

Golden Earring - Radar Love (another cruising tune)

Ok i'll stop there, we all know there are great songs out there just doin it for us, Rock Rocks and it'll keep on Rockin when we're dead and buried a long time. It'll rock at least till half past three on a wednesday in january 2095 and then some. Anyone who loves the good old bands like led z and black sabbath check out the new aussie band Wolfmother, they know what it is to lock and load and blast your !****!in brains out!

Top 10 in no particular order would have to be:

1. Astro Man- Jimi Hendrix, just cause its so underrated

2. Like a Rolling Stone- Dylan, but Hendrix's was awesome too

3. Moby Dick- Zeppelin, cause I love the drums in it

4. Money- Pink Floyd, didnt really fit in with the rest of dark side of the moon but its still an unbelievable song.

5. Magic Carpet Ride- Steppenwolf Its just a classic.

6. Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds- Beatles If thats not a drug reference, I dont know what is.

7. Light My Fire- The Doors, one of the few bands who can make the keyboard sound so cool.

8. Pinball Wizard- The Who, probably their best song.

9. Ziggy Stardust- gotta have some David Bowie.

10. Willie the Pimp- Frank Zappa I love all 9 minutes of it.
