I'm with you Shroom, for me its 'THE WHO', just about the first and last word in what is quintesentialy British!! Growing up in this city, you were fed the 'fab four' all your life BUT to me the band of the sixties was The Who, the Beatles played for themselves and far to much 50's infuences, the Stones plagurised American Blues, the Who were left to carry a flag... And by Christ did they carry it!! Only Ian Dury, the Jam and The Smiths have ever come this close.

 

As a kid, it was all The Jam (can ya see the link!!) but i've always 'listened without predudice'.

 

AC/DC run a very close second for me... Just out and out, 'pure f*****g rock'! ... WoW!

 

But closer to now, the Chilie's and Pearl Jam... Great bands, but i'm an American classics fan too, from Springstien to Steve Miller and beyond.

 

Slag me if ya wanna, but all those old school FUNK stuff too, Sly an the family Stone, Funkadelic, Parliment and the Ohio Players, Earthy Wind & Fire, to name but a few.

 

Like i said, pretty much most stuff... Read listen & enjoy... :thumbs:
