Yes, Heart of the Sunrise as well as South Side of the Sky are awe inspring peices of audio art.

I guess I could throw in the entire Moving Pictures Album by Rush as one of the truly great masterpeices of modern times.

But thats just me :)


Funny how Yes fans almost always are into Rush as well..:).....any live version of Xanadu...Cinderella Man and FreeWill as well.

SirLoin, I get into shouting matches over that album, I'm only 31 and love that album, I'd put it at No.3 on my All-Time list for me.  My buddy blows a gasket when I say that.  It's Sheer bloody poetry.

I started reading this thread last night and promptly loaded my MP3 player up with lots of kick bellybutton music for the work day today. Its funny though how some just keep getting knocked right back to the top of the playlist.

Just a few of those are Peace Train, Hush, Immigrant Song, Levee, Moonshadow, Morning has broken...well there are many more like anything Jimi Hendrix did...lets just say that I could listen to one song at a time all day and not get to them all.

Hmm.. Greatest Rock song and no mentions of Deep Purple's Smoke on the Water?

Although there are lots of other great songs... but I'll go with that one for now.

Good song and yes I did think of it but I honestly like Hush better even though Smoke on the Water is considered by many to be the better of the two.

Agreed.  

Highway to Hell is probably better known though.  Heck, I like anything AC/DC. :)
