Guys I have had a roller coaster last 72 hours. I will explain later. I am at work and I have a couple of minutes to put in my two nominations

I am not sure if this one has already been nominated or not. If it hadn't already been nominated I will nominate "Crying" by Roy Orbison.

MY second nomination is "So Happy Together" The Turtles.

Peace to everyone I must run now.

NO, NO, NO !!! I mightn't get to vote for my own nominations. :P

I didn't mean for you to nominate all GOOD ones. Now my Top Ten is shot to bits. Everyone here knows that You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling is my "Greatest Song Of The Rock Era" and Crying is on my All Time Top Ten. So they'll have to be #1 and #2 for me this time. And look at the other great 60s' ones !

Good luck Farin with finding the date for Stravinky's Rite Of Spring. Im pretty sure I know it. Does it go "dut dut a duttle da dut dut da".... :grin: I'll chase it up in my eldest son's GREATEST COMPOSERS CD Collection.

1917? I think that's when the big riot was at the premiere.

1913 :P
