Next round the Championship Match!

I wonder if you can guess my favourite? Is yours out of the running yet?

All my favorites have been out of the running for a round or two.

(Hotel California, Imagine, While my guitar gently weeps, Train in vain, Higher ground, Brass in pocket and The dock of the bay)

But all the songs were great! Thanks for participating.

I'll have the championship up before the day is out!

HERE'S THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH!!!

After 62 matches the final two left standing are a bit of a surprise to me, being that they are both from the very beginnings of Rock n Roll in the 1950s. There is an arguement for many other songs to be here other than these, but somehow it seems fitting that two of the founding fathers should face off for the title.

So here goes-

Johnny B. Goode – Chuck Berry
vs.
Jailhouse Rock – Elvis Presley

Thank you for making this so much fun!

Last chance! I'd hate to tabulate the final without your vote!!

The winner of the first "Harvey's Rock Era Song Tournament" is...

ta...da...da...daaaaaaaaaaaaa!

"Jailhouse Rock"

Still the "King" after all these years!

It's been posted on the tournament page. But RL has gotten in the way of me contacting everyone who participated. I want to thank each and everyone of you from the bottom of the "Diamonds on the souls of my shoes" to the top of my "Bang your Head"!!!

Thanks so much!

What's that Harvey? Oh he says Elvis has left the building.
