I'm going to refuse on the grounds of Rick Rolling, even if it's not, nothing viewed that much can be any good, it means there are almost a billion suckers that have clicked it...

Re: YoU ShOuLD be SMACKED IF... (iPod Edition)
 

No Rick Rolling, as per the stickies hahaha :tu

But yes, I totally agree. I find myself staying away from a lot of modern, overplayed, mainstream music (no I'm not a hipster), but going back to good ol' classic rock!

Music preference, like cigars, is a very subjective matter.

Dusty Springfield - Dusty In Memphis
Van Morrison - Astral Weeks
Otis Redding - Otis Blue
James Brown and the Famous Flames - Cold Sweat
Frank Sinatra - In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning

That would be a good start in my honest opinion.
