sotto voce 6000 Post Club Member Registered: 08/15/06 Posts: 6163 Loc: Briarcliff Manor, NY, USA	I'm surprised no one mentioned Billy Preston yet. The Top 40 hits I remember best were "Nothing From Nothing" and "Will It Go Round In Circles." _________________________ "There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats." —Albert Schweitzer Chopin: Allegro de Concert Op. 46 Schumann: Toccata Op. 7 Fauré: Ballade Op. 19

Derick II 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 10/13/05 Posts: 1426 Loc: New York	Billy Preston and Serita - With You I'm Born Again. Sucky song. All the girls love it, so I play it - but I hate it. _________________________ "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid."[/b] - Soren Aabye Kierkegaard (1813-1855)

elainelynn Full Member Registered: 06/01/07 Posts: 210 Loc: Michigan	What a great thread! I'd like to add: Smashing Pumpkins - Thirty-Three Anything by Carole King And speaking of the '80's - remember "Making Love out of Nothing at all"? Super cheesy but fun (and easy) to play! Elaine
