Well this request goes far deeper than just classic rock. If you're from St. Louis then you know what KSHE 95 is. It's the classic rock radio station here and has been since 1967. They have those songs that you will always associate with them. They are that station that would never play Journey Feeling That Way, without following it with Anytime.
So here is where I want your help.
I have started to put together a KSHE playlist in my itunes. So what are those songs that are must haves for this playlist?
