palebluedot, Julian Hatfield is cool. Saw her live four years ago.

I was wavering between them and Sugar; decided to avoid choosing by going chronologically. I didn't even get to the 90s, so my list looks like one of those "They don't make 'em like they used to" things.

The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
Jimi Hendrix Experience/Band Of Gypsys
Santana
Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac/Splinter Group
Pearl Jam
Zappa/Mothers
Velvet Underground
Allman Brothers Band
Steppenwolf

In chronological order & (best period):


The Beatles (from Help on up)

Rolling Stones (late 60s to mid 70s)

The Who (late 60s to mid 70s)

Jimi Hendrix Exp. (all)

Led Zeppelin (all)

The Faces (most)

Iron Maiden (from start to '89)

Black Crowes (still good)

Radiohead (all but frist and latest album)

Ocean Colour Scene (all but first, self-titled album) (favorite current band!)

Deep Purple
Depeche Mode
Controlled Bleeding
Front Line Assembly
Apoptygma Berzerk
VNV Nation
New Model Army
Megaptera
MZ414
Thin Lizzy

Have you not heard their latest? Brave New World is certainly a return to form and, IMHO, their best since Seventh Son. Doesn't hurt that Bruce is back in the mix. :thumbsup:
