Hehe, look at my signature template - it's from the last song on the same album ;) An essence of Communism, at least like we make it now - free for everyone ;)

Ray and Dave really ROCK.

Indeed, forgot to add Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Best KBD soloes ever, maybe even better then Jon Lord.

MrBill - many people already mentioned Creedence Clearwater Revival = CCR ;)

Black Album and before was all good.

I agree IMO Master of Puppets was their best album, their subsequent albums may have been as good I think if Cliff had not died . In Justice they tried to compensate for the lack of a strong bass guitar sound with the bass drum beats . The black Metallica album was much better than justice imo, unfortunately, to me it seemed like their last earnest attempt . I like listening to their later albums but it's not the same music that made them famous .

Beastie Boys
The Cure
Souxsie and the Banshees
Bauhaus
David Bowie
Naked Raygun
The Specials
Fun Boy Three
The English Beat
Echo and the Bunnymen

... and just for fun the Angry Somoans

...and NO ONE mentioned Frank Zappa?????

philistines, the lot of ya! ;)

Ok, I'm assuming that we're excluding Jazz & Blues, and focusing on great BANDS and not individual performers/songwriters, etc... so, in no particular order:

Frank Zappa - ANY band of his
Jimi Hendrix Experience
The Beatles
Traffic
Led Zeppelin
Steely Dan
The Meters
Parliament - Funkadelic
Sly & The Family Stone
any James Brown band of the 60s - 70s
Mahavishnu Orchestra
King Crimson
Little Feat
Velvet Underground
The New York Dolls
The Ramones
Humble Pie
Be-Bop Deluxe
The Clash
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
The Grateful Dead
The Police
Alice In Chains
Black Sabbath.... ONLY with Ozzy! Dio must be destroyed :)
AC/DC - preferably with Bon Scott
Pink Floyd, provided it stops with "The Wall" ;) Actually imho the Syd Barret floyd is the most interesting music of the lot.
Iggy & The Stooges
ZZ Top... BEFORE the fuzzy guitars came in!
... and many more that my memory won't produce on demand ;)


now.... Bands that Must Die:

Journey
Foreigner
Asia
Boston
Rush (that one word could start a 300-post flamewar ;)
Any leather/hair sporting 80s metal atrocity :)
any leather/hair sporting 80's "new wave" atrocity, with the exceptions on the above list
Abba
Styx
...feel free to add ;)
