    I really toyed with Smells Like Teen Spirit for my list. One of the few that just missed out. We both agree on London Calling though

    i knew that we would be
    Any more lists?
    Most over/under rated artists of all time?

    However that maybe is different per country.
    My top few album openers in no order:

    Where the Streets Have No Name - U2
    London Calling - The Clash
    Hells Bells - AC/DC
    I Wannabe Adored - The Stone Roses
    Blinded by the Light - Bruce Springsteen
    Good Times Bad Times - Led Zeppelin (putting the vinyl on and hearing that blast out for the first time in 69 would have blown your mind)
    Baba O'Riley - The Who
    Round Here - Counting Crows
    Hotel California - Eagles
    Welcome to the Jungle - Guns N Roses
    The Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel (perhaps the greatest?)
    More Than A Feeling - Boston
    Bat Out of Hell - Meatloaf
    Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones



    My top album closers:

    1. A Day in the Life - The Beatles (nothing ever has or ever will get close to this song)
    Brain Damage>Eclipse - Pink Floyd
    New York City Serenade - Bruce Springsteen
    Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits
    Champagne Supernova - Oasis

    same of mine the first 2 openers .. and great pair of closers indeed .. but as you've named a Bruce' one .. what about Jungleland?

    Jungleland is great too. Interchangeable with NYC Serenade, but if I could choose to see one live, it'd probably be NYCS!
