.... and they've got a band you've never heard of on.....

So you order a glass of your poison of choice and settle down to listen.

Much to your surprise and delight, not only are they good, but they also play the one cover you've always wanted to hear, but no one else has played!

So what track is it?

(And what track do you really NOT want to hear?)

Hey, all you musos can play aswell......

The Jeff Healey Band - See The Light. Though that really is asking something.

The song I really don't want to hear? This is going to be controversial but Goodbye To Romance. I'm a huge Ozzy (& Randy Rhodes) fan but, for some reason, I cannot stand that song.

Great shout. Tempted is a belting tune.

It's a great song and I recorded it some years back for my own pleasure ..... and it's one song that I couldn't remember the chords to from one day to the next - had to write it all down. I'd give +10 for anyone attempting it!

@mick green
wow - cant believe an RR fan doesnt like that!! just shows how we're all different!... i always thoght that showed every facet of his talent!!
Its music, theres no right and wrong!
.... time for a glass of red!

Jez - I almost didn't post it, that's how shameful it is! But I just don't like the song. Love the rest of Blizzard of Oz, love just about everything else RR did. I even love some of Ozzy's cheesier ballads. But I just have a real dislike for that song. And I know I'm probably in a minority of one on that (certainly when it comes to rock fans). But hey - an honest answer to Al's question (rather than putting The Cheeky Girls down, which was my second choice)!

What sort of band are they ?????

War Stories by The Starjets.....classic.

Would love to hear - Muddy waters blues - Paul Rogers

Would want to leave if I heard - Wonderful tonight - Clapton - only Clappers should do this song, anyone else is just going through the motions and makes it really cheesy.

End of the world - U2
