Great Music - Round 1: 1975-1979 (Group 16 of 16)

[mae]

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

Kiss - Rock and Roll All Nite (1975)

Sister Sledge - We Are Family (1979)

Meat Loaf - Paradise by the Dashboard Lights (1977)

Queen - Don't Stop Me Now (1978)

Cheap Trick - I Want You to Want Me (1977)

Eric Clapton - (You Look) Wonderful Tonight (1977)

Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall (1979)

Very tight race after the top two so far: the bottom five tracks vying for the last three slots.

Wow, still a five-way tie for the last three spots here. Crazy!
