110) Led Zeppelin — “Sugar Mama”

Zeppelin unheard?  No way!  Way, as this smoking outtake from their first album wasn’t released until 2015.

111) Marianne Faithfull — “The Sha La La Song”

The B (better) side of “Summer Nights,” her last hit single (#24 in Sept. ’65).

112) Buddy Miles — “Memphis Train”

Buddy, drummer for Jimi Hendrix’s Band of Gypsys, conducted this runaway soul train, taking it to #100 in August of ‘69.
