Fishbone!
Fighting leads to killing, and killing gets to warring. And that was damn near the death of us all.

I see the direct connection between Gong and Soft Machine. And how Magma fits in the picture. Originally Posted by Buster Highmen

Eddie and Alex were from Amsterdam.
Brent Mydland was from Munich.
Skip Spence was a Canuck and Graham Nash is a Brit.
The Doors get my vote, with Social D running a close second.

My vote for #1 is CCR!!!
But some other thoughts:
the eagles
bob segar and the silver bullet band
zz top
stevie ray vaughan and double trouble
bruce springsteen & the e street band
george thorogood
the four tops okay they don't count but i love them
but Huey Lewis and the News could make this list!
beck for a wildcard
how about steely dan
the doobie brothers?Last edited by TacomaLuv; 11-21-2006 at 11:34 AM.

Lynard Skynard needs more love
so does Pink Floyd"I think people resist freedom because they're afraid of the unknown. But it's ironic....That unknown was once very well known. It's where our souls belong....The only solution is to confront them--confront yourself--with the greatest fear imaginable. Expose yourself to your deepest fear. After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." -Jim Morrison

I almost posted earlier: "At least no one has suggested The Eagles yet." Apparently, it didn't work. Originally Posted by TacomaLuv
