And as I replied (lol) different styles so if we are going there it has to be Carlos Santana for me.

Or Jimmy Page for technical brilliance as I had the pleasure of doing sessions with the man in my misspent.

"If you leave me now by Chicago"

Been divorced best part of 17 years now but seeing this just hit pretty hard. Chicago were our fave band and 'You're the inspiration' was 'our' tune and played at our wedding.

Funny how music can take you back to a place and time like nothing else.

Life!

"nites in white satin procol harem "

Lovely track but it was written by my old mate from Swindon Justin Hayward (no relation) and recorded by the Moody Blues.

But 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' was an almighty classic

In May 2010, Rolling Stone magazine compiled an updated list of the 500 greatest songs ever.

The number of songs from each decade in this updated version is as follows:

1940s... 2 songs

1950s... 69 songs

1960s... 195 songs

1970s... 131 songs

1980s... 55 songs

1990s... 22 songs

2000s... 26 songs

But the thing is !,,,,, did we really need a list to tell us that !!!!
