    Just a few names I’m surprised I haven’t seen...
    Bob Segar
    Tom Petty
    John Mellencamp
    George Thorogood

    And as far as Metallica...One will always be my favorite

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    This list must have a Metallica song to be legit. While One is my favorite, it might be a little to heavy, so I'll go fade to black for this list.

    @ScotchnSmoke sux lots of large wéiners. And tons of small ones.

    For Whom The Bell Tolls - Metallica
    Sanitarium - Metallica

    About a six way tie for favorite Bob Seger song and none of them is Old Time Rock & Roll.

    CCR - Couldn't narrow it down, take your pick.

    Tom Petty is my favorite all time so my favorites are some most of you wouldn't be familiar with.

    Highwaymen - The Highwaymen, since Johnny Cash is in play here.

    Also, you wouldn't believe how many of the songs that have been listed are already on my favorites playlist.

    I watched the "Frankenstein" video by The Edgar Winter Group that somebody posted on the first page.

    I couldn't help but be reminded of these guys.

    OK, but seriously, Free Ride by The Edgar Winters Group needs to be considered for this list. (More cowbell @ 2:20)

    Those are the best 2 songs BOC ever made! Burning For You aint bad either but not as good as those two.

    If you quote me do the @TX98Z28 in your text or I won't be notified of your quote, Thanks.
