When I was iddy biddy kid around 3-5 years old, my dad would start off every Saturday morning with this song for me on his huge KenWood speakers which were bigger than me and you could hear five blocks away when turned all the way up. Used to gallop around the house excited about this song.

When it was late in the evening and was off playing with the other kids and it was time to come home I would hear this song get cranked up and knew it was time to come home. Would pedal my arse off on my big wheel!

Have fond memories of this song.

Fairport convention are playing in Newcastle later this year, almost booked tickets to see them.

Here's a couple by John Martyn, who sadly passed away a few weeks ago aged 60. I went to see him a couple of years back, and although he was in pretty bad shape his music never let down. Amazing gig.

Definitely one of the best singing voices ever.

Besides full albums I think are the best in their ultimate enjoyable completeness, like Genesis "Duke" and The Who's "Quadrophenia" I would have to say today would be:

I love this song, I know it's morbid but I want it played at my funeral.

Also how come it seems nobody has any love for the metal on these boards? LOL This song is a classic, and Halford is insane... victim of chaaaaaaaaaaangeeeees!!!!

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXqb_3fR6Ok]YouTube - Judas Priest - Victim of Changes[/ame]

I could go on and on lol I'm glad to see some Pink Floyd, but my all time Floyd song has to be "Us and Them." Also I love the Queensryche, for me though I love "Queen of the Reiche." And lastly one of my ALL TIME favorite songs is "Everything Little Thing She Does is Magic" by the Police... well anything from the Police is good stuff...

Yes, I know, it's what's for dinner. :P

I can think of a few rock songs I'd toss up here, but anything Mozart or Copeland would keep me happy.

No kidding slick? I never pictured you for the classical type.

I listen to everything except rap/country, but 80% of the time I listen to classical. I played violin and cello growing up, daughter plays both now, and I work part time as a luthier in one of the best violin shops in St. Louis now.

So anyway.. yeah.. my favorite piece of music is by far is a toss up between Adagio in G Minor by Albinoni

Or

Air from Bach's Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major
