Not my list, Steve, and not my choices. But there are some in there worthy of their places.

She is rather young, and some of those tracks don't get a regular airing on the radio. How often, unless you put it on your own sound system, do you get the chance to hear the sublime A Day In The Life, or the magnificent Life On Mars?

Twenty-two? Definitely a baby! It's lucky you've heard of the ones you recognised.

Waterloo Sunset, Life On Mars and A Day In The Life are well worth listening to. I'd have opted for Paint It Black by the Stones.
