What are my 10 favorite rock record album opening tracks?

Steely Dan : “Bodhisavatta” (1973)…This gem played like a jazzed up “Rock Around the Clock” for the 70’s

Elvis Costello : “Brilliant Mistake” (1986)… Elvis Costello’s grandest statement of purpose.

Jimi Hendrix : “Freedom” (1970)…The opener chosen for Jimi’s first posthumous album.

What are your thoughts about Hulk Hogan at the Republican National Convention in support of Trump and ripping his shirt off? Did he exaggerate?

Emerson Lake & Palmer : “Tarkus” (1971)…A bit of a cheat as a side long epic piece.

Foghat : “Eight Days on the Road” (1974)…Foghat became bigger stars with “Fool for the City” the following year regardless this opener began this boogie quartets most consistent record.

Lynyrd Skynyrd : “Saturday Night Special” (1975)…There were two songs that defined LS & this was one of those two performances.

Alice Cooper : “School’s Out” (1972)…This great opener was also Alice Cooper’s best single.

Deep Purple : “Highway Star” (1972)…The live Made in Japan version was definitive but everything has to start somewhere.

Savoy Brown : “Tell Mama” (1971)…Dave Walker left something to be desired in his singing albeit this blooze n’ boogie was arguably Savoy Brown’s finest opening track.

Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

Wire : “Practice Makes Perfect” (1978)…Wire went from creating a essential punk masterpiece “Pink Flag” (1977) to crafting a indispensable post punk masterpiece & this groovy song was chosen to open up that sophomore album “Chairs Missing”

Allman Brothers / “Don’t Want You No More” >”It’s Not My Cross to Bear” (1969)…The Brothers exploded on the rock scene with this pair of segueing rock n’ blues performances.

Grateful Dead : “Uncle John’s Band” (1970)…The Dead leave the psychedelic weirdness of their earlier studio records behind & craft a acid/folk masterpiece of hippiedom.

What do you do you do if your motorcycle chain snaps while riding on the highway?

Boston : “Don’t Look Back” (1978)…Not quite the masterpiece of “More Than a Feeling” but still a compelling listen from these sterile & clean A.O.R. darlings.

Bryan Ferry : “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall” (1973)…Ferry’s best Dracula has risen from the grave vocals along with some of the 1970’s most outrageous production was found on Ferry’s debut solo record & this performance only added to the bathos BF was conveying on the entire “These Foolish Things” record.

Elton John : “Funeral for a Friend” > “Love Lies Bleeding” (1973)…Proof to the naysayers that Elton John was also born to rock.

Why do many women like tall men?

Genesis : “Watcher of the Skies” (1972)…Hard to argue with a classical rock record that opened with this Gabriel era gem & side 2 was the epic 22+ min “Supper’s Ready”

ZZ Top : “Nasty Dogs and Funky Kings” (1975)…2:43 mins of crushing top tier “Little Ol’ Band from Texas”before they sold out to the MTV brats. Best experienced on the original RL pressing.

Which current F1 drivers should switch teams based on historical patterns?

Ray Charles : “Busted” (1963)…This opened Brother Ray’s best studio album in fine full orchestra R&B rocking style.

John Cale : “Fear is a Man’s Best Friend” (1974)…Lou didn’t hit his solo stride until 1982 but Cale’s best solo work was during the mid-70’s & this Island label debut opener was the beginning of a superb 3 record run.

Roxy Music : “The Thrill of it All” (1974)…Arguably Roxy Music’s most thrilling (pun intended) opening performance.

Key moments from the third week of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ sex trafficking trial - AP News

Pere Ubu : “Non-Alignment Pact” (1978)…The original single was pure punk but the opener to the Ubu’s debut album was a excellent example of leader David Thomas’ self titled “avant-garage” brilliance.

The Who : “I am the Sea”>”The Real Me” (1973)…Entwistle’s bass owned this performance.

Bachman-Turner Overdrive : “Not Fragile” (1974)…The very essence of heavy opener, best experienced on the original Kendun pressing.

Wilson Pickett : “In the Midnight Hour” (1965)…This opener was more than just great it was epic rock and roll.

Black Sabbath : “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” (1973)…The greatest opener riff meister Tony Iommi, Geezer & Ward ever crafted, just edging “War Pigs” out due to Iommi’s oh so heavy riffs.

& Led Zeppelin : “Immigrant Song” (1970)…”Whole Lotta Love” will always be definitive but this brief performance proved how much power early Led Zeppelin could muster in 2:27 minutes.

Why are people becoming increasingly hostile to pro-lifers? I am pro-life.

Talking Heads : “Born Under Punches” (The Heat Goes On) (1980)…The Heads had many superb opening moments & I simply chose this funk masterpiece through random selection.

The Doors : “Road House Blues” (1970)…Folks under the false impression that the Doors couldn’t rock out should head here toot sweet & begin worshipping at the feet of Robbie Krieger & Lonnie Mack.

Cream : “I Feel Free” (1967-US version)…This superb early single was wisely chosen to open up the US version of my favorite Cream album.

Van Morrison : “Saint Dominic’s Preview” (1972)…Van The Man had so many indispensable openers albeit this has always been a personal preference.

King Crimson : “20th Century Schizoid Man” (1969)…Arguably ground zero for classical rock.

In no specific sequence after #1 & I utilized only one band per suggestion…

Lovin’ Spoonful :”Do You Believe in Magic” (1965)…This opener/lead off single was one of rock’s most transcendent moments.

Randy Newman : “Have You Seen My Baby” (1970)…I have always adored Randy’s wit, cynicism & biting lyrics, but this opener was just plain Fats Domino song & dance fun.

Mott the Hoople /“All the Way from Memphis” (1973)…One of the greatest openers in all rock and roll history.

Why do you write?

MC5 / “Sister Anne” (1971)…7+ mins of heavy rock assault.

What is the most inappropriate experience you have had with a friend's daughter?

#1) The Rolling Stones / “Gimme Shelter” (1969)…This is the greatest in many categories, including greatest performance in rock.

Ten Years After : “Bad Scene” (1969)…Some of the best cock rock of the era.

Janis : “Move Over” (1970/1971)…The Full Tilt Boogie Band weren’t as passionate as Big Brother but they held their own with our Little Girl Blue on this rocker.

Tom Petty & Heartbreakers : “Refugee” (1979)…One of very few times Petty’s silly stoned immaculate southern drawl didn’t irritate the fuck out of me.

Rod Stewart : “Every Picture Tells a Story” (1971)…Martin Quittenton proved just how much rock and roll momentum could be squeezed out of an acoustic guitar & everybody else went along for the ride, while Rod The Mod crafted his finest opener on his finest album.

David Bowie : “Station to Station” (1976)…A 10+ min epic of coke fueled brashness that successfully put Bowie at a Roxy Music level of innovative excellence.

Fugs : “Kill for Peace” (1966)…The sixties first underground band meant to offend in everything they did & while this track was tame in comparison to most of their other songs “KfP” made another strong comment on wars, specifically Viet Nam.

The Beatles /“I Saw Her Standing There” (1963)…1,2,3,faah! was how the Brits first experienced the Beatles on album, personally I preferred my 1963 American single of “I Want to Hold Your Hand” bw “ISHST” more.

Bob Dylan / “Subterranean Homesick Blues” (1965)…Zimmy plugged in & nodded first toward Chuck Berry.

Van der Graff Generator : “Killer” (1970)…Dark ominous keyboards & Peter Hamill’s unique singing were perfect compliments to each other.
