Lynyrd Skynyrd
Creedence Clearwater Revival

 

[Greg_TX]

Jimi Hendrix and Black Sabbath - most rock bands would says those were their main influences.

Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson are my two favorite country artists.

B.B. King and Muddy Waters for blues.

Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer for reggae.

 

[TrailDust]

1. The Beatles

2. Jimi Hendrix Experience

 

[slammr]

Bruce Springsteen was the best show I ever saw.

As for best bands ever, I'd have to go with "The Eagles".

 

[HarleyMechanix]

Led Zepplin

AC/DC

 

[Vash]

Bananarama and Britney spears

j/k

its Zep and Floyd followed closely by DIO

 

[Leadpot]

Beatles and Zepplin,

If there 3rd and 4th choices, Grand funk and Skynyrd .

 

[M. Sage]

Right now I'm going to have to go with Foo Fighters and Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers (and the Refreshments before that).

The Foos:
YouTube - Foo Fighters - Best Of You

Peacemakers (simply the best live show I've ever been to!):
YouTube - Interstate - Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers (RCPM)

 

[M. Sage]

One more, this time from the days of the Refreshments:

YouTube - The Refreshments "Nada"

Awesome song!

 

[Texas1911]

Pink Floyd ... both times.

Because the awesomeness of David Gilmour and Roger Waters cannot be contained to a single slot in history.

I also love the Eagles. Alot of good stuff from them. Also don't mind listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival, Skynard, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, and a slew of other talented groups.

My mother hates Jim Morrison, but I like the Doors. I have an equal disdain for Fleetwood Mac (commence the vomitting) and Stevie Nix's schrill voice, but she seems to like them.

Both of my parents had a heavy influence on what I consider good. Most of the crap in the 90s and 00s is recycled horse feces compared to alot of what was put out earlier.

 

[Okierifleman]

If you are talking rock, then it is Zepplin and AC/DC. If you are talking metal, its Sabbath and Priest and Maiden and Metallica. Cant be just two in metal. If it is live, then it would be Metallica and Pantera.

 

[Skip]

Eagles and Clapton

 

[dbgun]

ZZ top & Aerosmith

or Beatles & Rolling Stones

 

[DCortez]

Beatles & Rolling Stones

I'd have to go with that. I rarely listen to them any more, burned out, but think their greatness is indisputable.

 

[phatcyclist]

Floyd and Zeppelin.

 

[MadMo44Mag]

Being a musician and drummer in a southern rock / blues band it is hard for me to have a favorite.
Each group brings it's own style, sound and energy.
I can sit and listen to various bands all day and get something different from each one.
Going through all the styles and types of music I own I find that 70's rock and all years of blues is what I own the most of and classical and folk is what I own the lest of.
I also own quite a bit of big band and modern jazz.
Of all the types of music out there Rap is crap and IMO not music at all but garbage packaged and sold to promote the gang life style!
Johnny Nitzzinger axle grinder extraordinaire and song writer says it all in his song "Rap is Crap"
Johnny is a Texas boy and played with ZZ Top, BB King and countless others. If Johnny says it's crap you can bank on it - LOL!!!

 

[Flight954]

Iron Maiden, Rush and Triumph can't just be 2
I pick these guys for true talent live bands
Queensryche would be my fourth for best live show

 

[Byaah_19]

Steve Miller Band
The Eagles- Love Don henley
