Trouble is, my top 10 list is actually more of a rotating top 50 list. My top 10, six months from now, will probably be a little different.
Hmmm, I should have mentioned CCR since nobody else did! oh, and The Band, Stevie Winwood, early Styx(no "Roboto stuff") and Boston...

I was waiting for your list John. My parents were big Perlman fans and I remember watiching a classical documentary series featuring him as a host and at times performer.
Dean. Interesting list, but not surprising coming from you. I forgot the Dead. They would make my top 20 list with their varied styles. Blues for Allah is my favourite from them.
David. Though I never owned anythign by him until very recently, Dave Brubek is right up there for me as well.
I'm still waiting for someone to put Dwight Yoakam in their top 10.

I would like to add Blondie, the Cars, and Tom Petty to my favorites. Would have loved to see any of them live. Maybe with Tom there's a chance, still.
Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.
