People have been making lists and ranking things since the beginning of time. Some of those lists are solid and some are utter BS. 

Hosts Michael Mariniello and Robert Mathers investigate and debate whether these lists are actually voted on by everyday people, or were picked by a lonely writer on deadline, a radio programmer faking his way to higher ratings, or an evil cabal that makes millions every time the song Stairway to Heaven tops a chart.

New York’s WNEW-FM’s Top 1,027... December 1987

We start winding down this year, with an update to the list that served as the inspiration to this podcast, WAXQ-FM NYs, Top 1,043 Greatest Classic Rock Songs of All Time.  Did we effect any change?  Did the programmers at The Q, just shuffle some songs around to make us believe that a real vote had taken place?

Q104.3’s Top 1,043 - 2020 Edition

Rolling Stone Magazine’s Top 500 Greatest Albums of All Time
