DIFFORD AND TILBROOK OF SQUEEZE WERE COMPARED TO LENNON/MCCARTNEY . A LOT OF PREESURE EARLY ON FOR THE YOUNG LADS

I MIGHT ADD  XTC TO YOUR LIST

I listened to the fezband on youtube..they are good...pure pop for power people....I heard a little men at work and a little of the records..the records also belong on the list...thanks for mentioning the pezband.

Big Stones fan here!  The best songs have been mentioned, so rather than repeat things I'll post my 15 best Stones songs that no one has mentioned:

1. Come On
2. Far Away Eyes
3. Luxury
4. Just My Imagination
5. Little T&A
6. Time Waits for No One
7. Not Fade Away
8. Torn and Frayed

11. Out of Time
12. Salt of the Earth
13. Heart of Stone
14. I'm Free

HM: Memo from Turner, which is technically a Mick solo song, but it's been included on some Stones compilations so what the hell.  Give it a listen if you're not familiar with it:

ADD: JIVIN SISTER FANNY. SHE'S GOT THE BRAIN OF A DINOSAUR.........

how about As Tears Go By........originally titled as time goes by...Andrew Oldham suggested the retitle wording.

Top Ten Bob Dylan songs (now this one is a challenge):

1. Like A Rolling Stone
2. It's Alright Ma
3. Blind Willie McTell
4. Desolation Row
5. Gates of Eden
6. Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
7. Changing of the Guard
8. Hard Rain
9. Masters of War
10. Tangled Up in Blue

queen jane approximately.......Maggie's farm.

what if you could choose all of the studio albums,..no greatest hits or live albums of either springstein or Dylan or elvis Costello for the desert island but you could not include highway 61 or born to run or this years model.......a tougher more difficult choice then one might think....I really believe bruce then comes in third and maybe elvis comes in first by a nose.

For Bob Dylan, I'd have to add:

Mozambique
Hurricane
Tight Connection To My Heart
Make You Feel My Love
Rainy Day Women #12 and 35
Shelter From The Storm
It Ain't Me Babe
Lay Lady Lay
Silvio
Knockin' On Heaven's Door

EDIT: Forgot to add - "George Jackson"

I hear that tom waits and bob Dylan are going to do a duo album of simon and garfunkle songs.

Bob Dylan did a duet -- both parts! -- of Simon and Garfunkel's "The Boxer" on his critically-panned Self Portrait album (an album I kind of like, actually).  After all these years, I still can't figure out exactly what the gag was with "The Boxer" -- it sure doesn't seem like Dylan liked the song and was trying to do it justice, but who knows.

That whole album was a Dylan protest against his record company which held him to a contract he wanted to leave and required him to put out a certain number of albums during that period. 

So he did a whole album called "Self Portrait" of OTHER PEOPLE'S songs ! 

I particularly like his rendition of "Big Yellow Taxi" by Joni Mitchell.
