OK, here's a goofy idea. From 1967 through 1970 there were Band/Song Milestones which influenced my guitar and musical style a great deal (I was 15- 17 years old). Not the usual stuff. I thought it would be interesting to see how many "Top Ten " picks overlap each other. If you were around then - I think you'll know what I mean...

My list:
1. Only You Know and I Know - Dave Mason "Alone Together" (yeah ,the multi colored vinyl LP)
2. Devil In Disguise - The Flying Burrito Bros. "Guilded Palace Of Sin LP"
3. Shine On Brightly - Procol Harum "Shine on Brightly, LP"
4. Darkness, Darkness - The Youngbloods "Elephant Mountain LP"
5. Someday Soon - Judy Collins/Steven Stills "Who Knows Where The Time Goes LP"
6. Train Kept a Rollin' - The Yardbirds " Blow Up Soundtrack LP"
7. Natural Harmony - The Byrds " Notorious Byrd Brothers LP"
8. Love Street - The Doors " 45 RPM "B" side"
9. Hey Grandma - Moby Grape "LP track & 45 "A" side
10.Ramblin On My Mind - Bluesbreakers "John Mayall w/Eric Clapton LP"

So - What are yours??? 8)???

Yes I was around then :lol:

This will take a bit of work so I'll get back to you.............just as soon as I jog my faded memory for songs that I liked during that period that influenced my playing style.
