Hello marypeg! So good to see you first thing this morning!!
I hope you've got more good days than bad!
I heard Nights in White Satin just a few days ago while I was in my husband's car and he has satellite radio - so for the first time ever I saw it was "Nights" and not "Knights". I'd always thought of chivalrous men heading off to battle and jousting, wearing not tin suits, but some floaty 70s looking satin jumpsuits. Ever since I was a kid. But no, I think it's about satin sheets? I like my story better!

Looks like a good list. I used to play 'Nights in White Satin' on one of those little table side jukeboxes in our local café. Hey, what the hell! I didn't put that mark on the e in café! There it is again! I meant kafe, so you're not so smart after all, are you mister computer?
I loved this song, my parents had it on 45 and I used to play it on my turntable all the time. (*sigh* "turntable", I'm so old...)

I've never heard of a lot of those on the list.
I'd pick J. Geils Band, Eurythmics, The Cars, Dire Straits, and Bon Jovi

Edited to add that I thought Moody Blues were already there......
