I always liked the 85 re-recorded version of "Needle in the Groove." They had moved past Lizzy into full hair metal production style.
My Mama's Boys jam was "Hard 'N Loud"

no zep, sabbath , deep purple or rainbow yet?
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Friday, 20 August 2010 19:23 (fourteen years ago) link
I think people should be very conscientious about which zep, sabbath, etc. etc. tunes are nominated. They will be subject to veto if they are some shit about Satan, fairies, elves, orcs, whatever.
― meat by mistake (kkvgz), Friday, 20 August 2010 19:27 (fourteen years ago) link
Such songs should probably be limited themselves to such subject matter as "giving you every inch of my love" or "owning and operating a motor vehicle"

It does say "hard rock" in the thread title. They all qualify under that surely?

The following criteria will have to be met:
1.) Blues-based rock and roll.2.) Created between the mid-70s and 1993 (release date of The Spaghetti Incident, which slammed the door on the whole enterprise AFAIC).3.) By performers wearing makeup/hairspray/spandex/leather/gypsy scarves and jewelry4.) Probably been heard in one or more of the following: strip club/tilt-a-whirl/pool hall/Camaro.
It seems like a real outlier. I can't listen to it now, because I'm at work, but I'll check it out.

― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Friday, 20 August 2010 19:45 (fourteen years ago) link
Don't know how I'm weighing the votes or the max # of tracks yet. I should probably cap the nominations at 50 songs per person, unless anyone objects?
