There might have been other great epics. But I am listing only those
who became well recognized or very popular.

01. Interstellar Overdrive (Pink Floyd)
-Interstellar Overdrive was one of the very first psychedelic
instrumental improvisations recorded by a rock band. The opening hook
of the piece is a distorted, descending guitar riff played in unison by
the band. This riff eventually segues into improvisation, including
modal noodlings, percussive flourishes on the Farfisa organ, and quiet
interludes. The song gradually becomes almost structureless and
tempo-less, punctuated only by strange guitar noises. Eventually,
however, the entire band restates the main theme, which is repeated
with decreasing tempo and more deliberate intensity until it finally
concludes.

Ah - excellent - we have our answer. Based on the timestamps on my
end, we can now deduce that "ADIOS" is a Spanish word which, roughly
translated, means, "See you again in 9 hours and 22 minutes".

Who says you can't learn anything new around here?

Mainstream.

Of course you did. In-a-Gadda-Da-Vida.

From Wiki:
"The song is significant in rock history because, together with Blue Cheer
and Steppenwolf, it marks the point when psychedelic music produced heavy
metal. Later 1970s heavy metal and progressive rock acts like Deep Purple
and Led Zeppelin owe much of their sound, and even more of their live acts,
to this recording."

It is a quote from an Internet website, so it must be true. LZ owes IB,
especially for the name. Of course, I am using your benchmark for evidence.

I love your title - "Top 10 most revolutionary MAINSTREAM epic songs of all
time". Please consider that taking a word that means radical change and
forcing it to mate with a word that means the prevailing and/or accepted way
or thought is a sure way to show you have a complete understanding of how
language and communication works. Or not.

Please start a list with this title - The Top 10 Greatest Boisterous
Tranquil Songs That Were Average (The Top 3 Songs Must Be By Led Zeppelin,
Pink Floyd, and Yes)
