I've been rockin' n rollin' since 1962. I have worked on the creation of the "GEEK LIST" for more than a decade. The list has over 3,500 songs from the 60's thru the 2000's and is still a editing work in progress. It ranges from early Rolling Stones, The Who, Pink Floyd, Procol Harum and even old schooler, Wilson Pickett to more modern day rock such as The White Stripes, Green Day, Blink 182, Wolfmother and even a song or two from The Black Keys. The "GEEK LIST" is broken down into decades...sort of...60's-70's (1,200 songs) is the first one created...then the funkadelic fabulous 80's (1,000 songs)...can't forget the grungey 90's (still working on it)...and finally, the 2000's (always changing) and beyond list.

I will soon shares favorite rock band and/or artist lists of personal favorite songs I have composed of several rock and roll bands and artists. Starting with the letter A, Look for Aerosmith to kick it off. Peaceout for now, rock fans.
