Damn, this whole section of the forum is like the Twilight Zone.
It's like, the Personal forum.... brimming with posts and new threads every day, and this is like a damn ghost town. XD

You're right Cookies. Let's examine that list in detail. C'mon you rock & rollers, let me here from you.
01. Led Zeppelin -Stairway to heaven
As it should be. In the late 70s, when the radio would play this, that was a signal to all that the DJs were firing one up. If that's not Rock & Roll, I don't know what is.
02. Rolling Stones- (I can’t get no) Satisfaction
Other than making everyone buy a Fuzz pedal, I'm not sure why this is so great. Much better Stones songs to choose from as well.
03. Queen -Bohemian rhapsody
04. Deep Purple -Smoke on the Water
A little high, for a classic riff and that's about all.
05. Steppenwolf- Born to be wild
06. Black Sabbath- Paranoid
The song that every garage band puts in they're first set list ever? I don't think so. Plus, Ozzy solo had much more impact... Crazy Train?
07. Jimi Hendrix- Purple Haze
08. The Beatles - Yesterday
09. The Doors - Light my fire
10. Pink Floyd - Another brick in the wall Parte 2
11. AC/DC - Back in Black
12. Janis Joplin - Ball and Chain
Wait a minute, #12? Maybe 112.
13. Rush - Tom Sawyer
Ok, it's a radio list. Makes sense.
14. Iron Maiden - The number of the beast
But this certainly doesn't. And I don't remember it charting too terribly high. The album sold well, but airplay was nonexistant.
15. Ten Years After - I’m going home
16. John Lennon - Imagine
17. Kiss - Rock and roll all nite
Kiss making this list may seem like a joke, but I guess if you have to pick one, this is it.
18. Aerosmith - Dream on
19. Joe Cocker - With a little help from my friends.
Beatles version is much better. How 'bout Feelin' Alright or Leave Your Hat On?
20. Bob Dylan - Blowin’ in the wind
21. Los Jaivas- Todos juntos
Oh yes, you bet. Who? Note to Chile: Good Rock & Roll will never come from Chile.
22. Eric Clapton - Cocaine
Re-worked Sunshine? That should go here.
23. Pink Floyd - Money
24. The Beatles - come together
25. Yes - Roundabout

Hey, if you have knowledge about music, please make a little research... Gabriel Parra (RIP) former drum player of this band, was named "one of the best drum player that ever played in England" during a tour in the 70's - 80's...
And of course, LISTEN TO THE SONG first, and then give your opinion.

In fact it was Music Week who said in the 70's that Gabriel Parra (drums) was one of the greatest drummers ever played in England until that period (1979) Sadly he's no longer with us!

Funny, I stumbled over this thread accidently, but somehow it led me to listen to Los Jaivas. Interesting music, seems to be a great band. I liked "Mira Niñita" very much! No idea what it's about, though. But "Todos juntos"? Nothing special, strange vocals ... no.
