OK, I’m convinced. Thanks for the feedback.

mmm

82

Thanks for doing these, by the way.

83

Thanks for thanking me.

mmm

84

Damn. That reminds me of two others :-
Cannonball - Weather Report
Cannonball - Supertramp

85

Country Preacher - Cannonball Adderley

86

Communication Breakdown - Led Zeppelin

Which I would have included if I was allowed more than three nominations.

87

I’ve got about 15 “C” songs rated with 5 stars in my iTunes library.

To cut it down to 3, I went with:
Come as You Are - Nirvana
Cherub Rock - Smashing Pumpkins
Chickamauga - Uncle Tupelo

Sorry Breeders, I decided to change up the genre a bit for my third so Cannonball didn’t make the cut.

88

93

F**** F**** F**** F**** F**** F****

From the Smooth Jazz genre, I’d like to add;

Might as well add Connection by Elastica and Cortez the Killer by Neil Young while we’re at it.

Cortez did make an appearance in the also-ran poll.

I gave it one of its 5 votes.
