Great Music - Round 3: 1975-1979 (Group 8 of 12)

[mae]

During the third round of The Great Music Tournament, please vote for up to two tracks you would like to move onto the playoffs. The top two tracks will be moving on. Keep in mind that the percentage of the vote a given track receives will determine its standing going forward..

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do listen to each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a track well, it's still worth giving it a listen for a refresher.

The poll will run for seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

The nominees are (please let me know if any video doesn't play for you):

Heart - Barracuda (1977)

The Eagles - Life in the Fast Lane (1977)

Led Zeppelin - Kashmir (1975)

Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street (1978)

stars to fill my dream

Too bad for Baker Street...but instrumentals don't usually do well. I have yet to hear the version with lyrics. I'll dig that up and bug you all with it in another forum.
