We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Sly and the Family Stone. If that music doesn't make you happy, you need a bullet!

Here's a real list.....partial, of course

My Kind of Town - Sinatra
Take the A Train - Strayhorn/Ellington
Harlem Nocturne - Earle Hagen (esp. the Danny Gatton live version)
Music for the Royal Fireworks - G.F. Handel
Victory at Sea theme - Richard Rogers, NBC Symphony Orchestra
Theme from How The West Was Won - Composed by Alfred Newman and Ken Darby
William Tell Overture - G. Rossini

Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf
Born to be Wild - Steppenwolf
Soul Sacrifice - Santana
Hey Jude - Beatles
Look at Little Sister - SRV
Telephone Song - SRV
Pipeline - Chantays
Jack the Ripper - Link Wray
Pretty Woman - Roy Orbison
American Woman - The Guess Who
Louie, Louie - Kingsmen (or Washington State University band)
Hungry - Paul Revere & the Raiders

There is some more contemporary stuff that I like...but at this point I'm more of an oldies, jazz and classics listener.  As you can tell, my tastes can be pretty varied.

PWV, you are now my official buddy-for-life!

That is GREAT!!!!!!!  They're raising that little girl right!

And yes, there are few pieces of music that make me happier than the WSU Fight Song.  As always, GO, COUGS!

Pretty much the entirety of Bob Marley's "Babylon by Bus" - puts a perma-grin on my face every time!
