Peace, Piece:
Peace at last, Peace at last. But there are still questions needing definitions before signing on Friday. Tranquilize.
On Saturday evening Weather forecasters were warning of a potentially dangerous storm moving towards New York City. They must have been talking about the Knicks Celebration
US stocks will soar today on the basis of the potential peace deal looming. But as the euphoria of that settles, we start to look at stocks and companies again without the emotions of oil or no oil, peace or no peace. We will look at valuations, earnings and revenue, management and mismanagement, and AI reality. You know, the regular stuff. What will we see?
The Question:
Obviously, Greatest of All Time lists are often subjective and that is especially true in music. But what do you think are the top five greatest Rock hist of the 70’s?

Reading between the exclamations, there appears to be several undetermined positives in the Peace Agreement. Trumps initial opening of Hormuz statement have been toned down. If there is no progress on Nuke talks after cease fire signing, US will take military action. In oter words it doesn't sound yet like a permanent peace but working cease fire.
I see where Switzerland, beautiful, happy Switzerland, has a proposal in their legislative body that would put a 10,000,000 cap on population. That country could get pretty inhumane pretty quickly. Calling for Doctor Kevorkian.
But the flag of Switzerland is a big plus!!
Japanese action in tidying up the Texas Stadium after the scocer match is based on, “You have to think of Everyone”. It's an axiom that comes from their innate belief that if somebody allows you to use their facility you should leave it cleaner than when you arrived. These fans in Texas were meticulous in picking up every scrap of everything. Hmm. I think as I look at coffee cups and fast food wrappers in strewn amidst bastions of nature’s beauty. How hard is it to take what you brought, to be civil?
Note to Jeff Bezos – most low-income Americans don;t pay any taxes already.

Time: It’s what keeps everything from happening at once.
The Answer:
Number one is Stairway to Heaven by Led Z. Next is Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen, Hotel California - Eagles, Won't Get fooledAgain – Who, Baba O'Riley - Who, Sweet Home Alabama – Lynyrd Skynyrd, Dream On - Arrowsmith, Born to Run – BS, Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac and #10 Comfortably Numb – Pink Floyd
One of my Favorite From-the-Gut rock songs is Janis Joplin and Big Brother and Holding the Company – Piece of My Heart. It was a late 60;’s tune and I was surprised to see it was only rated #156 on the all-time 60’s 300. But is atop the Tids list. Always felt for the sadness of Janis plight.
