Light relief needed – Top 10 rock songs/bands

Hmmm – tough work this politics stuff.

Got to thinking about Ozzie Osbourne’s Quote of the Day – made me realise that many good rock bands came from the West Midlands – my home area – Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Led Zeppelin.

Further thunks had me arrive at my top rock anthems/rock bands, and in no particular order:

  1. Layla – Derek & the Dominoes
  2. Run to the hills – Iron Maiden
  3. Ace of Spades – Motörhead
  4. Stairway to heaven – Led Zeppelin
  5. The boys are back in town – Thin Lizzie
  6. My generation – The Who
  7. Go your own way – Fleetwood Mac
  8. Hanging on the telephone – Blondie
  9. Wonderwall – Oasis
  10. All along the watchtower – The Jimi Hendrix Experience

Hope the list promotes good thoughts.
