I know. How could I leave off

Somebody to Love - Jefferson Airplane
Aqualung - Jethro Tull
Locomotive Breath - Jethro Tull
How Many More Times - Led Zeppelin
Cowgirl In the Sand - Neil Young

and on and on.

I ripped all my CDs (~1400) last winter. Now I am listening to everything and rating each song. I am in the "F"s and I already have 102 5-star songs. How do you ever narrow that down to 10?
