As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

#198 Queen Of My Soul – Average White Band (1976)

Music, sweet music
You're the queen of my soul
 
Certainly a sentiment near and dear to my own heart.
 
AWB notched only two big hits: the #1 near-instrumental “Pick Up The Pieces” and the #10 follow-up “Cut The Cake”. (“Queen Of My Soul” topped out at #40.) Despite their modest commercial success, however, they maintain a loyal following, put on a great live show, and are well worth checking out, even if you find “Cut The Cake” to be really annoying.
