Great Music - Round 2: 1970-1974 (Group 14 of 16)

[mae]

During the second round of The Great Music Tournament, please vote for up to three tracks you would like to move onto the next round. The top three 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):

[Randall Flagg]

I screwed up and chose 2, not 3 in this poll.
Pablo, please add one vote to Pink Floyd Brain Damage.

Surely.

[Jon]

I assumed Rocket Man would run away with this one.

[T-Dogz_AK47]

I assumed Rocket Man would run away with this one.

IMHO, This should be a two horse race between Rocket Man and Band on the Run, as both are way better than all the other songs in this group.

I was never a fan of Pink Floyd and John Denver is way out of his depth amongst this group.
