I think thats a bit more "classic" than he is looking for.

;)

Robin Trower - The Day of the Eagle

Molly Hatchet - Dreams I'll Never See

...both come to mind as excellent jams that get no airplay that would be nice additions.


Classic rock....the music I threw up with. :p


EDIT: Trower title. <disclaimer>I suffer from flashbacks occasionaly<disclaimer>

What Led Zepplin song is the one sampled in P. Diddy's "Come With Me" from the Godzilla soundtrack. Is it even Led Zepplin?

Yes they are. Classic=timeless.

Don't get me wrong Rasta, I love every tune you have listed there. It looks like the drivetime playlist for any Classic rock FM station in the country though. Dig deeper. Go for the great stuff you never hear much.

<crawls back under rock and puts in Uriah Heep cd>
