Ok. Good idea, how about 5.00pm Wednesday evening For your list of tracks. We should score properly, I will retract my two scores until I have a listen on playlist. If everyone that wants to score would send me a pm. Stating the posters name and score and any comments, by 5pm Thursday I will get a top 10 published (if we get that many) by Friday.Think we need a deadline to stop it taking over too much. Really struggling though I have my theme but limiting to 10 is proving tricky, and keep thinking of other bands I'd like to crowbar in.
Wow, that’s really taking back control :-)I've had a quick go at a compilation.
Kiss: Detroit Rock City
Van Halen: Runnin' With the Devil
Rush: Red Barchetta
Blue Oyster Cult: Don't Fear the Reaper
Angel: The Tower
John Mellencamp: Cherry Bomb
Lynyrd Skynyrd: What's Your Name?
Led Zeppelin: Rock n Roll

Bad news on the transfer front I'm afraid. I have it on good authority that Simone Biles has said that she'll be unavailable for City this season.All subject to anything imminent happening in the transfer thread of course.
Two tracks from The Lonesome Jubilee in people top 10s (admittedly, one of them is mine!) - 'tis a red letter day.I've had a quick go at a compilation.
Kiss: Detroit Rock City
Van Halen: Runnin' With the Devil
Rush: Red Barchetta
Blue Oyster Cult: Don't Fear the Reaper
Angel: The Tower
John Mellencamp: Cherry Bomb
Lynyrd Skynyrd: What's Your Name?
Led Zeppelin: Rock n Roll
Boston: Don't Look Back
Yes: Starship Trooper
There is some extremely decent stuff amongst that lot, in fact, taking into account the Yes tracks, which I cant get into and therefore couldn't be bothered listening to, practically perfect. The yoof of today dont know what they're missing.I've had a quick go at a compilation.

Wow, that’s really taking back control :-)
v impressed.
ps scores for yourself don’t count.
Two tracks from The Lonesome Jubilee in people top 10s (admittedly, one of them is mine!) - 'tis a red letter day.
And to think, I only joined these forums for banter about transfers and city matches!
Got to say that some of these threads and related music/TV/books/films discussion have kept me sane whilst working from home for the last 16 months.

I’ve a ton of stuff I could go with but I’ve gone for putting something together that hopefully nobody else would.Think we need a deadline to stop it taking over too much. Really struggling though I have my theme but limiting to 10 is proving tricky, and keep thinking of other bands I'd like to crowbar in.
