As more than one person has said, this is a list that could change sooner than a cloud passes the window, and also as far as I am concerned, to paraphrase what another member uses as a signature quote, "All the best music has no words" anyway.

However, at 2-24 pm Saturday 31st October

It's All In The Game - Tommy Edwards
Space Oddity - David Bowie
Green Door - Jim Lowe
Things We Said Today - Beatles
If You Want Me To Stay - Sly and the Family Stone
Into Each Life - Ink Spots
One Inch Rock - T.Rex
Donkey Rides, Penny a Glass - Small Faces
Hellhound On My Trail - Robert Johnson
Kicking the Gong Around - Cab Calloway

.....and maybe the forum's signature song should be "Willy and The Hand-Jive" (I rather like Cliff Richard's late-Fifties version myself!)
