29. The Velvet Underground - Sister Ray (1967)

This song is VU at their zenith. It has everything that the band did best.....the simple organ line, the driving and pounding drum beat, the wild screeching guitars, and Lou Reed's debauched, mad lyrics and vocals. This is also probably the shortest 17-minute song I've ever heard, as the drums just pound away giving you something to focus on while the organ, guitar and Lou just go to town. On the fairly strange (even in Velvet Underground terms) White Light/White Heat, this song makes up for all the only decently successful experiments on the rest of the album. Also, try to find a live version of this....the song never sounds the same on any recording, and it's great every time.

6. The Beatles - Within You Without You (1967)

I listened to the remastered reissue of The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band for the first time today, and it was amazing. This has been possibly my favorite record of all time for a good majority of my life, and hearing this new version was almost as if hearing it for the first time. This song in particular, which I had always thought of as one of the lesser masterpieces on the album, sounds amazing. The orchestration is much more crisp, and George's sitar playing is much more interesting than I had originally given him credit for. After hearing this I can't wait to hear the other new reissues, as I'm sure I'll find some new favorite parts to some of my old favorite songs.
