You must have got my left overs or sloppy seconds

I was grateful for anything lad

I honestly think no "lady" entered that club on a Friday or Saturday without wanting "romance"

but not to dance

Except the last three slowies when you could headlock them after the third

What are you trying to do to me, man? This is madness.

I truly like the Stones. Let it Bleed is probably my favourite album of theirs. But.......

it is often argued they are an over-glorified R & B band.

They have existed 200 years longer than necessary & released too much forgettable material. Should have called it quits when Mick Taylor left. A few decent tracks after that but not much. Just my opinion.

I was thinking of asking for 20 songs, but where do you draw the line.

I got the idea from the Quietus website - they get celebrities to select 13 favourites albums, or occasionally 13 songs.

Maybe we should do 13 favourite albums when this thread peters out?

My problem is somewhere therein...see music thread,
