I thought about listing the Cramps, but they ain't exactly a name band. "Bikini Girls with machine Guns" what a masterpiece. CCR I forgot.  Violent Femmes rock.  Bad Brains damn near invented punk.

Minutemen
Ministry
Butthole Surfers
how could I forget the Who? FFS


Yeah, I love the Cramps.  Yeah you're right, not everyone knows who they are.  Butthole Surfers and Ministry are great too.  I didn't list a lot of the older bands like the Who, and I didn't list but one metal band.  I also noticed I didn't list one British punk band.  I didn't really like the Sex Pistols.  I kind of have the same opinion of them that Henry Rollins has of them....they were cute. 

I like a lot of metal, but I only like particular songs from most metal bands.  I didn't like the rest of their material.  I listed AC/DC and CCR because those are two bands that had nothing but great songs.  I can't think of one thing either did that I didn't like.

Man, too bad you didn't have more time up here. I have some early Johnny Cash, Elvis, Carl Perkins, & Jerry Lee here - early Sun stuff on vinyl. Wait till I get my good audio gear fixed. 


I got a bunch of old Sun stuff on vinyl too.  I used to collect records, and I grabbed all of my grandmother's records when she died.  I've got a couple of Elvis and one Johnny Cash record produced by Sun.  I also have a shitload of old 45's that my mother let me have.  She was going to throw them out, before I intercepted them.

I'm not overwhelmed by most metal stuff.  A couple of the Glam/Hair metal bands did some decent stuff, but not consistently. Van Halen did some fine work, and David Lee had a great rock voice, but he did too much belching and farting. I'm not a fan of shredding, either. In 12 bar, it's often the note not played that makes the difference.

And speed/death metal, well, I dunno, for me, much of it is comical - at the point of self-parody; that or I associate it with Stormfront mosh pits.

AC/DC
Credence Clearwater Revival

Those are just the ones off the top of my head.  I never was very good at making favorite lists.  My moods change too much to have favorites. 

Of course, I excluded the bands that only had one or two songs that I liked.  I also excluded bands that I won't admit to liking.
