Surely that should be Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young?

Nope Smiley

Fair enough, I prefer the C,S, and N without the Y.   Might upset Adje though.

CSN without the Y is like Zippy Bungle and George without Geoffrey!

No, a bad thing. Neil Young is the musical equivalent of Steve White.

Good, i'm off to see Neil Young in the summer, with a bit of luck Stevie might be there to, to round off a perfect day.

I'm off to see him in Nottingham in June. Saw him last year at Hop Farm and he was superb. He's still an angry old bastard at 63 and long may it continue.

1. Dire Straits (Knopfler should knock off the artsy-fartsy stuff and start rocking again)
2. Shads (Wouldn't have all the later guitar heroes without Hank Marvin)
3. ELO (By virtue of "Time")
4. Traveling Wilburys (Roy Orbison, couldn't that guy sing!)
5. Booker T and the MGs (the Colonel is the man, re. Blues Brothers)

There's some great bands currently (even though I'm an old git), Killers, Coldplay, etc, REM are always worth a listen.  Blondie get an honourable mention, well ahead of their time.

Boomtown Rats were fun.  In the early days of punk, the "Rats" spat on the audience who spat back and at each other.  I claimed a Geldof flob at a concert when the Rats were just breaking into the charts.

1. Pink Floyd
2. Bon Jovi
3. R.E.M
4. Muse
5. The Killers

A whole hatful of honourable mentions including Franz Ferdinand, Belle and Sebastien and Manic Street Preachers, but that's just getting greedy.

Rancid's are great, good shout Rich.

And Out Came The Wolves is a brilliant album. Reminds of Tony Hawk skater games.
