How quickly would you be able name 40 of your favorite songs?
Here are the first 20 that popped into my head....
Some of mine surprised me in a pleasant kind of way.
"Buring Down the House." for example, brought back fond memories of The Top Hat bar in Missoula, Montana.
I can still remember shaking my booty to the nitty gritty blues of such artists as Tag Mahal and BB King (both of whom often performed live at the Hat)....
Those were the days my friends.....but hey, that's another great song (by Mary Hopkins) from long ago, isn't it?
Yes, well, read on McDuff!

Where are the other 20? Your title says "Jerri's top 40". Any contempory music in there???
I'm old.
Old people don't listen to contemporary music.
Every now and then I do spin a piece of vinyl instead of the eight tracks; but that's as "contemporary" as I get!
LOL!
