5 of My Favorite Classic Rock Songs

Ok ok. I told you I could not just have 10 favorite classic rock songs so I am adding these 5 to the collection. I have 10 favorites at 10 of My Favorite Classic Rock Songs.

I have always really liked Bob Segar's music and so he has to be represented. I could actually make 6 or 7 of his hits my five favorites! I have been a Moody Blues fan since 1968 before anyone even knew who they were. They started out as an English blues band and changed into one of the most innovative bands of their time. Their songs are brilliant classics.

Before he was famous, Jim Morrison almost stepped on me while jumping over a sombrero at UCSB. I thought he was a very unusual guy. Turned out it is possible to be a musical genius and unusual at the same time. Perhaps they go hand in hand. I don't know. But Light My Fire was one of the greatest of all classic rock songs. I like the recorded long version the best.

 

Tom Petty "Runnin' Down a Dream"

Bob Seger "Still The Same"

Bob Seger "We've Got Tonight"

Moody Blues "Nights in White Satin"

Doors "Light My Fire"

5 Becomes 6: This is the Anthem of Southern Rock. Enjoy.

I know. I should have labeled this hub "My Top 10 Classic Rock Songs" and just put in 20. I wonder who would have noticed? :)

I really like Against the Wind and Refugee. It is just that I was in the mood for the ones I picked that day:)

I have an obession with those cd's (the classic 60's, the classic 70's)you know the ones, so I love all these songs. I'm a pretty big Queen and Journey fan too. The Zombie's "Time of the Season" is one of my all time favs.
