      Fleetwood mac is one of the most interesting bands. So many lineup changes and different styles of music . I imagine a lot of casual music fans think the album "Fleetwood Mac" is the bands first album

        Really like Gold Dust Woman. It's high up on my Fleetwood Mac playlist.

        • "I Want a New Drug" was heavily "borrowed" by Ray Parker Jr. on 'Ghostbusters' and resulted in a hefty settlement for Huey.

          • I think this was the first Otis song picked. Loved all his work at Monterey Pop festival. Played the heck out of the Jimi/Otis album.

              Hard to believe, but yes he hadn't yet been picked.

                • Nice little trio of picks there with "Lazy Eye", "Far Behind", and "Reptilia"

                  • I forgot to mention "Bouncing Around the Room" was the first song we played after dinner at my wedding.

                    • Love the Glass Tiger pick.

                      Van the Man's is a great song.

                          • This has been incredibly fun. I have to admit that there were a lot of songs chosen that I had never heard. Anyway......classic rock ROCKS.

                            • I say we cap it at 999. Cooler number, and Gregg gets the last pick that way.

                                Thank you. If I had pick #1000 I would have picked either Happy Trails-Quicksilver Messenger Service or The End by the Doors.
