George S. -- I gotta know what pile my bean belongs in! The list obviously got a few things right -- a few.

Not bitching about selections so much as the definition of rock. There's a lot of stuff on that list that doesn't get close to mine. Patsy Cline? Love her, but..... The Carpenters? We are the Champions?

While not wanting to narrow things too much, I can't help remembering Dick Clark asking the kids rating the new songs, on Bandstand, what score they would give for, "Can you dance to it?"

There is definitely some stuff on that list that will NOT get your toe tappin'. Blowin' in the Wind?

Don't mean to rag on any favorite tunes.

I'll just add a few of my own (including some you definitely can't dance to). After reading the list, you will have no choice but to admit I'm way hip. I must insist.

LaVerne Baker...............Jim Dandy to the Rescue
The Penguins................Earth Angel
Four Tops...................Baby, I Need Your Lovin'
