I was thinking "Crazy on You better be in this list." Kudos to him.
Roundabout was unexpected but a great call.

Yes had at least a couple of albums that were absolutely fantastic. I can't say that I enjoyed all of their music/albums (particularly the later albums), but they had a period in the beginning where they produced some amazing music IMO. Steve Howe is a awesome guitarist, and Chris Squire had some killer bass lines.

Yes is one of the original Prog-Rock bands.

Great post.
Love that he put Seasons on there in honorable mentions.
I'm self-taught & couldn't name a single chord, but can play several including of course Stairway, Wish you were here, Crash, Over the hills and far away etc.
Call of Ktulu is hard. I have to play consistent guitar for a week+ to build calluses & increase flexibility to run through it flawlessly.
Many here I was going to post.

This thread has just forced me to the music store to get a 12-string & amp.
Thanks a lot pal, I was on a budget, but this is the soul we're talking about.

LOL @ everyone posting electric riff tunes when he's strictly talking acoustic. Some good selections there. That 12 string Taylor he has sounds awesome.

Obviously with lists, there's always going to be some bitching. But...

How the hell you gonna leave out Solsbury Hill?

Solid list and great video but I think Babe I'm gonna leave you should've been higher on the list. Plagiarism aside, Led Zeppelin is bar none the most talented band ever.

That being said I'm a bit disappointed that Mark Knopfler or Lindsey Buckingham didn't make the list.

For certain has good taste in music.

Good taste and apparenrly horrible memory.
Forgot he played that. Haha.
No worries, it's just an early warning sign of getting old and dementia, sundowner syndrome & psychosis.
