I don't know about mine actua...Great post, Son. I don't know about mine actual top 5, but, I'll give a few that are definately in the running!<br /><br />Led Zepplin - An icon of hard rock and possibly the beingings of heavy metal.<br /><br />Aerosmith - One dimensional at times, but man..what a show, and you get what you paid for...and them some. <br /><br />Jimmy Hendrix - Enough said<br /><br />Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble - Who cares what the French thought of him initially at Montreux...he showed them!<br /><br />ZZ Top - I know, not a great band, but you just can't help but love their tunes...and they've been around long enough to grow those beards!<br /><br />Journey & Air Supply - OK, I know, Journey is a band and Air Supply was just a singing duo, but if it weren't for them, there'd be a lot less baby making back in the day! Power ballads to the extreme.<br /><br />Queen - Regardless of what anyone thought of Freddie, this band could rock you!<br /><br />Now, just for fun...Kiss! OK, again, not a great band but they put on one heck of a show in their day.<br /><br />I don't know enough rock bands of today to really judge them, but I will say that the list above could easily have indluded: Chicago, Jefferson Airplane (before they became the Starship), the Who back in the day, but not at the Superbowl, and the Beatles. They pretty much did start a lot of it, didn't they?mbutlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06758857041527155985noreply@blogger.com
