My Favorite Songs of All Time


1. You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin', The Righteous Brothers.
Their greatest hits album was one of the first records I ever bought.

2.
Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me), The Temptations
This song was me in high school, always imagining having a girl friend.

3.
Listen to the Rhythm of the Falling Rain, The Cascades
Have always liked rain and sad songs.

4.
You Make Me Feel Brand New, The Stylistics
My Mom liked this one too.

5.
You Are So Beautiful, Joe Cocker
Heard Chicago sing this in concert in El Paso, Texas.

6. (I Can't Get No)
Satisfaction, Rolling Stones
Bought this 45 rpm record.

7.
California Dreamin', The Mamas and the Papas
This song reminds me of my high school days in El Paso.

8.
Stayin' Alive, Beegees
Still remember the Richfield High School (Utah) dancers dancing to this at a basketball game where I was doing the radio play-by-play.

9.
Gonna Fly Now (Theme from “Rocky”), Bill Conti
Used this music to promote the broadcast of the basketball games.

Introduction

I've always wanted to document, in some way, the music of my life. Now that I have my own blog I've decided to do it here. Even though I have never been a musician myself, I love listening to good music. In this blog I'm going to talk about some of my favorite songs and singers. Please feel free to comment. Also, I'd like to hear about your favorite music.
