Damn that Dave Marin! / RE: (TV) OT top ten list-who wants to play along?



I decided I didn't want to play because I knew this would take a lot of time
(and boy was I right).  So I curse you Dave Marin! (This exercise is akin to
having to choose which one of your 3 children get's to live.) 

In no particular order:

1. (I'm Living With A) White Girl - X 

2.  Mona - Quicksilver Messenger Service, live 7 minute version from Happy
Trails album (Bo Diddley)

3. A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall  - Performed by Bryan Ferry (Dylan)

4. Prairie Rose - Roxy Music 

5. No Expectations - The Rolling Stones (or Chris Smither version)

6. Morning Rain - Christine McVie/Danny Kirwan/Bob Welch, aka early
Fleetwood Mac

7. I Can't Stand It - The Velvet Underground

8. My Man's Gone Now - Performed by Jeffrey Lee Pierce/The Gun Club (George
Gershwin)

9.  Kingdom Come - Tom Verlaine

10. Breakin' In My Heart - Tom Verlaine
