Fantasy Album

[stoutfellow]

I haven't talked much about music for months now. Here, then, is a little experiment. This is an album I would like to have - an album which doesn't exist, but could be made. Each of the songs listed is by a singer or group that I don't have in my collection; I would like the song, but have no particular desire for any other songs by that singer or group. (It probably wouldn't be hard to download .mp3s of each of the songs and burn it on to a disc....) Without further ado:

1. "Precious and Few", Climax
2. "Brandy", Looking Glass
3. "The Worst That Could Happen", Brooklyn Bridge
4. "Drift Away", Dobie Gray
5. "Ode to Billie Joe", Bobbie Gentry
6. "The Rose", Bette Midler
7. "Stairway to Heaven", Led Zeppelin
8. "The Mighty Quinn", Manfred Mann
9. "Roundabout", Yes
10. "Some Velvet Morning", Lee Hazlewood & Nancy Sinatra
11. "Hush", Deep Purple
12. "Walk Away, Renee", Left Banke

I have covers of "Walk Away, Renee" (Four Tops), "Hush" (Merilee Rush), and "Stairway to Heaven" (Dolly Parton(!)), but would prefer the originals.

Anyone want to offer their own choices?
