    To this day, I still maintain that if you truly want to test the sheer power of a sound system, the best song to use to challenge it is

    Edgar Winter's FRANKENSTEIN!

    Of course you can disagree. After all, you've been wrong before!
    The Dutchman is definitely crazy, certainly gets points for use of his voice, and is a contender for loudness testing, but in my opinion the Albino still gets the nod for the huge variability of range in this very early use of synthesizers and his "song" is still is the one that is better for vibrating your synapses into submission when a stereo is amped up to eleven.

    This comes from a guy who named his coon dogs "Sonny and Cher"!

    Nope. My brother named them that. I tried to talk him out of it. He and I never did agree on much.

    OK, I'm a little younger than you guys, but I'll play. My first 45 was Queen's 'Another One Bites the Dust.' Had 'Don't Try Suicide' on the flip. Led me to my first album purchase, which was 'The Game.' I had three media options from which to choose for that album. I, of course, chose the 8 track! I now own it on vinyl, cassette, and CD. The 8 track is long gone!

    Ha! If 8-track was an option, you can't be that young!
