All Along The Watchtower - yer typically oblique lyrics a la Dylan...his performance 3, Hendrix's 4 (much fuller sound...)

Whole Lotta Love - Led Zep 5, air-geetars a go-go...!

Heartbreaker (I'll assume Zep again...) 4, marvellous performance...

Highway To Hell - AC/DC 4, as was that...

Stairway To Heaven - Led Zep 4, ...as was this, but just a trifle too heavy-going...

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down - I may upset the purists here (and they know who they are!), but I'll rate The Band and Joannie equally with 4...

Cocaine - Eric and JJ versions both 4...

Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen 5, for its sheer over-the-topness...!

Johnny B Goode - any rawk group worth its salt's had a crack, but I'll rate Chuck's version with 4, not his best performance, but a song of great importance...

Magic Carpet Ride -Steppenwolf 4, fine song, but not as essential as...

Ezy(?) Rider...which I assume to be 'Born To Be Wild' from 'Easy Rider'...5 if it is, although you could mean the Byrds' 'Ballad Of Easy Rider' (4), or whatever...!

The Pusher - (someone got themselves a Steppenwolf LP?!!) - 4 for that one...

Red House - Hendrix gets 4...

Smokestack Lightnin' - The ancient, but essential, Howling Wolf version gets 5...an ultimate Blues performance...

Fine list there, Fred...just need to work on your artists...!!

I guess I should have listed the artist beside the name to avoid confusion.
