Congrats to the first artists to appear in the revered Top 100. Love Paul Simon.

If you could see the rest of my mom's record collection, you'd really appreciate how lucky I was that we listened to Elvis! :mrgreen: Top JamieW What an interesting topic discussion.

Is Louis Armstrong's "West End Blues" (1928) eligible? It features Armstrong's scatting a bit, but very little. Nice song but more than 15%. Not eligible. Can't be helped I guess. OK, I hope that's one last question: what about all the chatting on live recordings (introductory stuff or no...

First off. Great listening and learning game. Thanks for putting this together Rob. Elton, what can I say? He is in my top three artists of all time...love, love love. I have seen him in concert three times and he rarely disappoints. However, this song from the awesome "Goodbye Yellow Brick Rd&...

Great minds ...

Absolutely. I am surprised that "New Light" has only appeared on two out of the seven lists thus far. Two #1 votes should help it to make a final placing on the 2018 list. Hopefully!!

Moonbeam,

Wonderful presentation and commentary. I found it very insightful and discovered quite a few new favorites from the Eurythmics. I am so surprised they do not have more fans in the AM forum.

Neil

Daniel,

Excellent rollout. Lots of new discoveries to add to my Xmas playlist just in time. Nice Xmas day rollout!
Thanks so much!

4. Temptations / Silent Night

Do you prefer the 1970 version from The Temptations Christmas Card or the 1980 version from Give Love at Christmas?

I believe it is the 1980 version. I really love the longer version.

Wow. The forum is really letting their hair down on this one. It would be a mistake not to include Marvin Gaye. "Sexual Healing" and "Lets Get It On" and practically anything by Sade. Also, Janet's "Antyime, Anyplace" which does not appear in the top 10,000, but should....
