Hard to say, since there are so many genres. Beethoven symphonies #4 and #7 by the Cleveland Orchestra, George Szell conducting. I can't find this one on YouTube, but it's my two favorite Beetoven Symphonies and a great interpretation. OR.. When I was a young student, playing in the beginning band, and not very wise about jazz yet, I walked into a record store and asked for a saxophone record. The owner suggested Focus, by Stan Getz. I wore out 3 LPs, and have it on CD. It was over my head then, but as I grew, so did my appreciation. The entire sax performance is an improvisation over the orchestrated background. How about a Gino Vanelli LP with a little symphony in the middle? or: Breakfast In America - Supertramp Time Out - Dave Brubeck Quartet Yes anyone? Aqualung - Jethro Tull I like this one better than Aja Manhattan Transfer - Extensions I could go on and on

Blue Monday — Fats Domino

The devil made me do this...

When I visited Australia, they called a collection of anything a mob. A mob of kangaroos, a mob of birds, and thus, a mob of elephants.

Can't Get You Out Of My Head — Kylie Minogue

Didn't that originally come from Paul Simon's "Mrs. Robinson"? Anyway, "I Am The Walrus" is one of my favorite Beatles songs. Not because of the words, but the music/arrangement.

Usually, when that happens, the brand is ruined. I hope this is an exception to that rule.

Bang A Gong (Get It On) — T Rex

Gotta follow that with: Bang Your Head (Metal Health) — Quiet Riot

Love Festival — Kool And The Gang

That Old Black Magic - Louis Prima and Keely Smith My dad had a bunch of Prima records. They were good musical fun, and I especially loved Sam Butera, the tenor sax player.

The last TV show I watched was Jay Leno's first “Tonight” show. And I had to go to my mother-in-law's to see it. So they don't lie to me. I depend on the Internet for the lies.

Show Me — Joe Tex

“Like A Rolling Stone” - Bob Dylan. Not because of the musical content, but it broke the 3-minute limit on top 40 radio station play. Beethoven's 3rd symphony, “Eroica” because it initiated the change from the classical era to the romantic era in symphonic music.
