    My All time favorite.

    It is fish cleaning music.

    I’m waiting for someone to mention Tiny Tim and Tiptoe though the tulips….

    Personally I enjoy a little Robin Trower and the Bridge of Sighs album when fishing..

    I am sorry,, but even though the song is “great” in some people’s eyes, any group that predominatly displays the stars and bars, can’t be the Greatest…

    why would you want a group that alienates one major group of people or peoples of this country?

    I almost forgot about Garry Glitter. He is really a fruit loop, but he had some great songs.Rock n Roll, Rock n Roll Part 2……..

    Well I was getting tired of the Coast Guard thread. Figured there was plenty of time to bash the Vikings and Packers. I never figured this thread would evolve into what it did.

    You would live just as long if you wouldn’t have brought that up again!

    Great post!

    Might be time to bring up the official Ido Logic Rod Index (RI) again. New members and so many things have changed.

    Does anybody else think that Stevie Nix from the Fleetwood Mac days had a sexy voice? Something about a couple of her songs just grabs my attention.

    AC/DC’s album, Back in Black has sold an estimated 45 million units worldwide(and still counting), making it the highest-selling album by any band and the 2nd highest-selling album in history, behind “Thriller” by Michael Jackson.

    Not sure about your info but a quick search contradicts your statements. However I see your source Wikipedia also contradicts itself and says you are correct. The difference is USA versus Worldwide sales so you are correct. Either way it is very impressive.

    1976 The Eagles Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) Asylum 29× platinum

    1982 Michael Jackson Thriller Epic Records 29× platinum

    1979 Pink Floyd The Wall Columbia/Capitol 23× platinum

    1971 Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin IV Atlantic 23× platinum

    1980 AC/DC Back in Black Atlantic 22× platinum

    1998 Garth Brooks Double Live Capitol Nashville 21× platinum

    1985 Billy Joel Greatest Hits Volume I & Volume II Columbia 21× platinum

    Speaking of top 100….Catfishing songs. Nothing beats this song on the ride home after a beautiful night of catfishing!!

    Primus
    The Doors
    Janes Addiction
    Rammstein
    Godsmack
    Metallica
    …to name of few over the years.

    Once I watched the entire main concert floor at a Rammstein concert strip naked and burn their clothes in giant indoor bonfires. I bet it made their subway ride home interesting (NYC).

    Awe… the sweet incredibly blurry memories of my youth.

    Anyway, you all will burn your cassettes and 8 tracks for these guys. They rule!!!

    Were you referring to BK burning his clothes in bonfire & going naked or his selection of C M. I guess just the thought of either.

    some one please either gently explain to me how to do the video or post my link as one..

    and lets stop the discussion of C&W.. I had a C&W greatest hits album once.. it was blank on both sides..
