Here's the second set of firt round matchups in our forthcoming Battle of the Bands to determine the best British (and Commonwealth) rock group from 1960 to 1974, playing out on my radio show starting this fall. I call this Bracket "The Mods" but don't read too much into that. Seedings appear after each band name, and these are arranged so that the winner of the first pair will meet the winner of the second; the winner of the third will meet the winner of the fourth; etc.
"I Can See for Miles," The Who (1) vs.
"Cymbaline," Hawkwind (16)
"Conquistador," Procol Harum (8) vs.
"Little Willy," Sweet (9)
"Ride My see Saw," Moody Blues (5) vs.
"Where Is the Dream Of Your Youth," The Strawbs (12)
"Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress," The Hollies (4) [Maybe riding the CCR bandwagon?] vs.
"Here Comes My Baby," The Tremeloes
""Bang a Gong," T. Rex (6) vs.
"Roundabout," Yes (11)
"No Time," The Guess Who (3) vs.
"The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway," Genesis (14)
"Woman From Tokyo," Deep Purple (7) vs.
"Cum On Feel the Noize," Slade (10)
"Money," Pink Floyd (2) vs.
"Circles," Les Fleur de Lys (15) [British, despite the name]
I'll have the remaining two brackets posted over the next few days, and you can see the matchups in the Pop Bracket here. Feel free to comment.
