Uncle Joe Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Ray, you've given out a lot of summer homework. Sheeesh, Canadians! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Trust me, UJ... it's worth it! Kenne: strange about Watchmen video... it's fine here. Maybe only Canadians are allowed access to the video! Darryl: I feel Anne Murray has plenty of worldwide recognition & my aim with this list was two-fold: little (or unknown) artists & a variety of songs from head-bangin' rock to easy-listening slow tunes. I could have easily thrown another 30+ songs in there, but I stuck with my faves, without using an artist more than once and only using artists not in the TT archives (excluding the April Wine nomination). I felt this to be a nicer list if there was some variety as not everyone is a head-banger like me! :rock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
