Tough decision.

I can be in the worst mood and put on Dark Side of the Moon and everything becomes right again.

Kansas is a favorite, being from Kansas makes it obvious, but I enjoy the spiritualism of the lyrics and the funky time signatures of the music. The two together really move me (ahh ain't that sweet).

For just get down and dirty RnR, it is really hard to beat Van Halen (the first two incarnations anyway).

Cream, CCR, SRV was unreal, doors, sublime, Live (if you've ever seen thier "unplugged"...it was great), bob marley, Hendrix of course, oingo boingo! hah

I used to think Floyd hands down...then the wife introduced me to Zep.

Now I think Zep questions asked, so much so that my wife walked down the aisle to Bron-Yr-Aur

 

[cigars&rum]

May I mention Def Leppard agian?

C&R

 

[xraydoc1]

Of course, the answer is clear:


Rush!

Everyone knows Social Distortion is the best rock band ever. But I have a soft spot in my heart for Black Sabbath and Prince.
