A mix of personal taste, influence, and popularity.

I tried to throw one or two 'curveballs' to make the poll more interesting.

 

[R. Evans]

Heard It Through The Grapevine- Marvin Gaye
A Whiter Shade Of Pale- Procul Harum
You Really Got Me- The Kinks

Tomorrow never knows ...THE BEATLES
Dazed and confused....ZEPPELIN
Light my fire...THE DOORS
