Marvin Gaye’s I Heard It Through The Grapevine always still sounds as fresh to me as it did when I first heard it in 1968.

[Robertb]

There are loads, but "She Sells Sanctuary" by the Cult always hits the spot...

And the live recording of Crossroads by Cream on Wheels of Fire. Incendiary playing and such energy.
