Well, I'm running out to a new year's get together so I have to do this quickly. Since the new year is arriving soon, I've decided to go with the idea of "pressing on." After all, we have a "lot more living to do." Chris, I'll get to your matchup for showdown #17. Sorry, I just wanted to do something that seemed a little bit related to the holiday. So here it is folks. Which song do you enjoy the most?

I'd Rather Press On

or

Salute (Got a Lot More Livin' to Do)

Enjoy.

I'd Rather Press On. It is a very appropriate song as I face the new year

Minstrel Man, I seem to have been gone when you were doing these regularly. What do the numbers indicate in the lists you post? EX: Showdown #1
Old Dan's Records 16 Uncle Toad Said 2... what do # 16 and #2 mean?

"Salute"! although I love both songs.

[Minstrel Man]

Hi Cathy:

The showdowns #1 - 15 are ones we've already done. I just put them at the beginning of the post so that we can look back at the results so far. We are all voting on #16 at the moment as you have done. Soon I will count the responses and add #16 to the growing list of results. Voting is done when people respond to the current post with their choice of the song they prefer (at the moment, of course).

i think we have a winner for this one!

[Borderstone]

"Salute (A Lot More Livin' To Do)". :)

Has more energy to it and is better than the other two "rockers" on said LP and "...Press On" itself. :cool:

"Salute"

Salute

I'd Rather Press On

I'm not too fond of the Salute album relative to the others, not that it's a bad album, and I think I hold that against the title cut.
