Re: Top rock songs ever
Was Rush ever considered a "rock" band? They were more like Yes or ELP and probably don't belong on this list, despite the masses who dropped acid to 2112. Rush seemed a more high-brow, intellectual rock band than their peers - probably because of Neil Peart.
I saw Peart play in a Buddy Rich Tribute Concert in NYC around 1991. Give this guy credit - he hung in there with Rich's jazz band the whole way. Marvin "Smitty" Smith stole the show easy, but Peart had a huge supporting audience. Also there was Journey's Steve Smith, who's got pretty impressive jazz chops for a "rock" drummer... |

Greatest Rock Songs [/ QUOTE ] That is a much, MUCH better list. I'm not saying that list is perfect or that it reflects my personal tastes, but at least it's covered with great rock and roll songs. Edit: I have a terrible confession to make and this seems like a good thread for it. [ QUOTE ] 1. Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin [/ QUOTE ] I have never liked that song. Maybe it's just me.

Re: Top rock songs ever
The only thing I don't like is that his solo is regarded as his "best". And casual Zep fans therefore seem to undervalue Page because they think that's his best solo, which, IMO, it probably isn't in his top 3.
The song itself is awesome, though. |
