Top Five Records

Hey, Moonsters. Had an idea that I thought might be fun. In the movie High Fidelity, the guys have conversations about various top five records lists, among other things. Here's a sample:

Top Five Side 1, Track 1's

Top Five Songs About Death

Top Five Records to Listen to on a Monday Morning (in which Barry enters singing the guitar solo to "Jacob's Ladder by Rush)

Top Five Dream Jobs

I thought that could be a fun thing to do here in the forums. Not exactly a quiz, but we could come up with some esoteric topics and have fun. George Duke's death got me thinking, and I posted a list of death songs in that thread, but thought I'd move it here. So, to get us started:





Top Five Songs About Death, a George Duke Tribute List.

1. Stavesacre - Stars and Clouds
2. Don McLean - Vincent
3. U2 - One Step Closer
4. Jimmy Cliff - Many Rivers to Cross
5. Warren Zevon - My Ride's Here

Or a fun musical brainstorm, sharing favorite songs - the kind of thing music snobs do.

Kansas is so morbid! And that's a great Band tune.
