These are my biggest beefs with Rolling Stone's alleged "Top 500 Songs of All Time." Artists they snubbed completely include Cream, CCR, ELO, Evanescence, K.D. Lang, Moody Blues, Styx and Supertramp.
I believe Alex North, composer of “Unchained Melody” was the original composer selected to provide the music for Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey. He produced a score for the film but ultimately Kubrick chose to use the classical pieces that are now strongly associated with the film.
Here is an excerpt of North’s music that was replaced by Strauss’s “On the Blue Danube”
Damn if I composed a list,of the 500 greatest songs, I would have to include Ode to Joy and they are coming to take me away. Of course Summertime is the,greatest blues song composed by two Jewish guys, reference American Pop.
Sunshine of your Love is my favourite song of all time. I know a thing or two about music.
A masterpiece of early rock.
John Prine Angel from Montgomery (RS350). Too low! And where is Sam Stone and Hello In There?
Your 10 is a 12 FFS!
Yes . Supertramp !
