Rolling Stones, Supertramp (I know that there's no love for Supertramp. But I don't care. I love their music very very much), Style Council, Jam, Specials, Beatles, Queen (70s only), Who, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Massive Attack and so on. I like classical and world music too.

:stereo:

What's wrong with Supertramp? They're great! The singer has a fantastic voice

Since I cannot edit my original post any longer, I would like to mention another band which I really love: Fleetwood Mac (the original with Peter Green).  

Kiwi in my time on this forum I find it so awesome how our music tastes are so much the same (along with some other folks on here like Stryder and Sath). I was hanging out with some acquaintances one day who were dogging on early Fleetwood Mac and lets just say I didnt hang out with them much longer. Kudos on the Peter Green love ... Next to Jimmys les paul that Peter Green Les paul sound is so sweet and nasty. Cheers!!!

I used to have favorite bands, but as I've gotten older I've seemed to lose a lot of interest in the older stuff. :unsure:

Even with my favorite groups there are only certain albums I can listen too.

Rush- Anything up to Signals. After that, they weren't the same group to me.

Ozzy- First two albums, The Ultimate Sin, No More Tears, and Ozzmosis. 

The Rolling Stones- Sticky Fingers, Exile On Main St.

Pink Floyd- I indulged in all their albums heavily as a teen, but now The Wall and The Final Cut are the only two I can tolerate, unless I'm wanting to hear a specific track.

Lynyrd Skynyrd- The Ed King albums. (Sorry Steve, R.I.P.)

Dream Theater- Train Of Thought (Loved this album but can't stand any others).

Megadeth- Youthanasia (I'm a metalhead, and this is the only album of theirs I've really liked).

Iced Earth- The Barlowe albums.

Metallica- Everything up to Load.

Morbid Angel- All the 90s albums.

Van Halen- First two albums. (Humans Being, from the Twister soundtrack).

Then there are bands that I can just throw anything on by them and listen- Creedence, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Old Crow Medicine Show, The Stanley Brothers, Mozart.

Like everyone else, it's really changed for me over the years and also depends on my mood. We're talking hundreds of bands from all genres here. The music I visit the most these days (past 2 years) is from Paul McCartney, Captain Beefheart, Sinatra, Gerry Mulligan and Chopin. And of course boots from Led Zep.

I've had a framed picture of Captain Beefheart in my house for many years now, if that tells you anything lol (the only music-related decor to be found anywhere besides fridge magnets).

Probably in order of:

1. Rush - mostly pre-Signals album.

2. AC/DC

3. Elvis Presley

4. The Who

5. Pink Floyd (after Syd left)

6. Mozart

Honorable Mentions: Yes, Stone Temple Pilots, Black Sabbath, Pearl Jam, Jimi Hendrix, and Rolling Stones.

Some you may laugh at: Alanis Morrissette, Irish music - including even pipes, flutes, folk music, The Corrs, Cranberries, BUT NOT U2.
