Headbang - 17 January, 2020 - Final Votes

The results are now in for the votes on the best themes of the evening:

1	Genarians	33
2=	Willie Dixon's Legacy	32
2=	Farewell Gigs	32
4	Keef's Riffs	28
5	Murder Ballads	27
6	Offspring	20
7	Obituaries	14

A close run affair - perhaps Debbie Harry's appearance in "that" blue dress may have just swung it for the 'Genarians?

As far as votes for the favourite tracks of the evening, there was a huge range of nominations - 15 in all, which is probably the highest ever, particularly given that there were only 7 of us there. There was, however, a clear winner, with SAHB yet again coming out on top:

1	SAHB	Give my compliments to the chef	8
2	Jimi Hendrix	Hey Joe	5
3	Blondie	Heart of glass	4
4	King Crimson	Heroes	3
5=	Nirvana	Where did you sleep last night?	3
5=	Status Quo	Roll over, lay down	3
5=	Dweezil Zappa	Peaches en regalia	3
5=	The Big Push	Sympathy for the Devil	3
9=	David Bowie	Rock and roll suicide	2
9=	Band	Up on Cripple Creek	2
9=	PJ Harvey	Down by the water	2
12=	Adele	I just want to make love to you	1
12=	Eric Burdon & the Animals	Paint it, black	1
12=	Rush	Spirit of radio	1
12=	Rolling Stones & Tom Waits	Little Red Rooster	1

Seven of the fifteen above were performances from the 1970's but five came from the decade just past. There was only one track from the '60's and two from the '90's, but none from the decade that music forgot (the '80's) or the noughties.

A total of 63 tracks featured, 39 of which were videos never before seen at a Headbang - including 16 new artistes.
