Dude! You can talk about the history or Rock and not mention the Beatles? Just how old are you anyway? Have you heard the first Blood, Sweat and Tears Album with Al Kooper?

Aside from YES and Pink Floyd, will anyone in 20 years know who those groups are?

Great music is defined by time. When you hear a sound thats 40 years old, and yet it still current. The Music of the Beatles will still be played 100 years from now.

Jeez…. kids today!

~~~you’re missing Joy Division, Jesus and Mary Chain, Roy Smalley and Ray Fontenot.~~~

LOL. Good one.

Good list — but you’re missing Joy Division, Jesus and Mary Chain, Roy Smalley and Ray Fontenot.

The worst thing in 1954 was the Bikini.

Now, I’ve GOT to put the album on.

The worst thing in 1954 was the Bikini.
See the girl on the TV dressed in a Bikini.
She doesn’t think so but she’s dressed for the H-Bomb, for the H-Bomb.
I found that essence rare, it’s what I looked for.
I knew I’d get what I asked for.

That’s an impressive list, Steve — surprisingly post-punk. I didn’t see you as a Gang of Four kind of guy. Who knew?
