Great Music - Round 3: 1970-1974 (Group 6 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):

Go Janis!

"Riders on the Storm" is such a goosebumps-inducing song. I hope it goes very far.

[Jon]

More love for Old Pink.

It's funny. As much as I am a big fan of Roadhouse Blues and Love Her Madly (both lagging in other polls); I'm not all that keen on Riders on the Storm, which is winning handily here. I'd much rather see any of the other three advance from this group.

I just hated to leave out Janice.

Mixed emotions...good to see Janice move on but sad to say goodbye to Drain Bamage. Likely my favorite Floyd tune.
