King's X has a song called Fly.....but I played that once

Fylingdale Flyer....off of "A", an example of why Jethro Tull is the best band ever. Integrating Eddie Jobson into the band and retaining the Tull sound was genius.

A Kansas song from Freaks of Nature...nice.

I really like the list....good picks this week.

Pink Floyd's Learning To Fly also comes to mind.
Interesting theme ... like it !
