Also, upon consulting my ballot, I see I voted for "American Woman" before joining in to trash it in the most-hated results. I must have been drunk or very out of it the night I cast my vote. --Johnny Fever
Eh, it's terrible but undeniably Classic Rock. Think I voted for it plus "no sugar tonight" and maybe "no time" too. (both of which are better, tbf)

I can understand preferring the Peter Green or Bob Welsh FM, but I don't understand liking the Buckingham-Nicks era and disliking Stevie Nicks.

mentioned this on the nomination and/or voting thread but eminence front is one of the only tracks i can think of that sits comfortably in both the CR and balearic canons
love eminence front so so much. i think you could make a case for other tracks in this poll like "fly like an eagle" (particularly cosmic if you cut out after the intro) and a few fleetwood mac tunes, but i say this more because i see them pop up on lists etc not nec b/c i agree

Only 2 of mine have shown up so far (BTO, Steve Miller Band*), but my ballots tend to be exercises in defiance, so no surprise.
*It shocked the hell out of me after a day of cutting and ordering and pondering to find "Fly Like an Eagle" still hanging around on my ballot. There's no difference between Steve Miller and Dave Matthews in my mind, but "Eagle" is hard to fuck with, and the essence of what I consider to be CR.

Also, I've been slacking on my stories because (1) this thread is about THE RESULTS, not my foolish behavior in my youth and (2) I'm at work and on my phone while the rollout is going on, which makes keeping up with things hard, but since The Load Out was a hot topic of conversation earlier today, I have a LOAD OUT STORY:
I was living in LA, it was 1978, and God, I hated that song so much (still do). So anyhow, my friends and I were walking down Sunset, we walked past SIR Studios (popular rehearsal space in Hollywood) and there were some roadies loading equipment into the building and standing right there, not really doing anything, was Jackson Browne. My friends and I were almost always drunk and/or on Quaaludes, so I yelled "hey Jackson, you getting the load out?" And he flipped me off.

If I were a woman Jackson Browne and J.D. Souther would seduce me, raid my purse for coke money, and right a song in which I'm a devil woman who inspires fountains of sorrow.
