October 12, 200717 yr LOVE Ride a white swan I think it's one of the best T-rex did. Great year for rock too. indeed, it was the first year 'rock' singles broke through into the charts... black sabbath, deep purple, in particular. but lets not forget the perrenial 'alright now' and the forgotten 'love like a man' (ten years after)
October 12, 200717 yr Lola by the Kinks is one of my faves from this year, one of thier best songs aswell imo
