Nobody gives a crap what you like or asked you to show off your collection, who cares.  I believe responses were to be based on and I quote

While I like all of these bands and have their albums, they aren't necessarily my favorites, or representative of what I usually listen to, but...
In no particular order...

The Clash
Black Sabbath (the ORIGINAL Sabbath, that is)
AC/DC (they slip in on influence)
Johnny Cash
The Misfits
Black Flag
Dead Kennedys

No, but you may be the only one who doesn't know that "CCR" =Creedence. Several have mentioned CCR. :)

On the other hand, no one has mentioned the DOORS !! Lyrics anyone?

CREAM! The inventors of the wall of sound.

Eric Clapton was even proclaimed as GOD.

Duane Allman was awesome in a shortlived career.

Soundgarden especially their early albumns.

Cool!  I was pokeing around in a music store in 1983 and found "Kill'em All" buried way behind loads of other stuff.  I saw the "Hammer and Blood" on the cover and thought "I just gotta hear this".  Turned out to be one of my favorite albums for YEARS, I couldn't believe the "new(ish)" sound.  Of course nobody in Oklahoma had ever heard of them, and some folks thought I was kinda wierd when they heard it blasting out of my very loud KRACO (woohoo, cheap as hell but great sound for about a month) car stereo.

...Started to un-like Metallica the 5000th time I heard Enter Sandman, now I can't stand the bastards since the napster thing.

Was searching for a post I made a long time ago and came across this thread. I read through this one and was amazed that it never went off topic or became hostile.

Could music be the common thread ( no pun intended, yet implied by it's mention) we all realate too?
