Re: 10 Men
Fantastic selection!
I went for Creation, Stones, Scott, Irma Thomas (great to hear that one again and Fifth Dimension.
Will come back to this as some of these tracks are certainly worthy of further chit chat.

"How I Wrote Elastic"
I shall listen to these tomorrow at work. Probably.

Like fast-moving clouds casting shadows against a hillside, the melody-loop shuddered with a sense of the sublime, the awful unknowable majesty of the world.

This. But “30th Century Man” would be a close second.

Re: 10 Men
I ended up going with Creation, Elvis, Irma, Stones, and Scott, but they were all good. Though I probably will never really love the Beastie Boys... (Which reminds me, "Pusherman" is another good one.) That Elvis clip was sensational -- I've never seen that special in its entirety, and I must rectify that soon!
The Davy Jones song is really good, though I think I prefer the Paul Williams original, which has a bit more emotion to it. Wonderful tune.

Bumping this up to 10 replies. I really couldn't whittle this down - 10 of my very favourites, as it happens. Picked the last 5 at random as a result.

Swap out Egg for Cheater and they would be mine for today. But i like all of them to varying degrees. 'Monkey Man' is a hell of a record.
Some more faves - 'Back Door Man', 'Watermelon Man', 'Starman', 'Midnight To Six Man', Sixty Minute Man'.

Re: 10 Men
Two more from The Kinks, Well Respected Man and 20th Century Man. Both could get my vote, even before the much loved Plastic Man.
Nobody's ferpect.
