Bvt, here it is:
 
1. KISS: she

2. Black Sabbath: snow blind

3. Iggy and the Stooges: tv eye

4. Ramones: commando

5. Sex Pistols: EMI

6. Slayer: angel o death

7. Toxic Holocaust: nuke the cross

8. Rolling Stones: monkey man

9. Electric Frankenstein: presssure


10. Motorhead
great list man!
I love to listen to cool jazz on a rainy night in 1947 Los Angeles --

QUEEN~White Queen (As It Began)
THE BEATLES~Eleanor Rigby
JETHRO TULL~Two Fingers
THE ROLLING STONES~Torn And Frayed
THE WHO~See Me, Feel Me/Listening To You
KISS~Rock And Roll All Nite
LED ZEPPELIN~Custard Pie
CREAM~Those Were The Days
GRATEFUL DEAD~Touch Of Grey
SANTANA~Europa (Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile)

I love your taste when it comes to Queen. I'm a die hard Queen fan. I've got all their LPs up to The Game and still collecting until I get them all!
And Queen II is perhaps my favorite album from them at this point. "Nevermore" being one of my all time faves. If it were only longer.

Thanks, Zachareed! I've always enjoyed Queen, but Queen II made me a fan for life. I have eclectic musical tastes, & after 30yrs Queen II has never lost it's magic.

Jethro Tull:  Wind UP


MORE Tull!! You guys rock!! I recall sitting in the commons area of the college I went to in 1978 pondering the lyrics to Wind Up. It led to some changes in my belief system.

Jethro Tull came around in a period of changes in my life.  I should have gone on to college, but I barely made it through high school.  Jethro Tull appealed to me on what could only be described as a philosophical level.  And as I possessed a somewhat iconoclastic nature, Wind Up stood out.  Most of the people I knew from high school did not like Tull--most of them could not understand what I saw in the band.  As a result, I found myself distanced from them. After some lousy dead-end jobs I gave college a try.  Now I'm an over educated loner working in a job that has no relation to my BA or MA.  But I still like Jethro Tull.

Fester, all I can say is "amen" brother. A guy in a high school art class brought in MU, Tull's Best Of collection. I was hooked!! Then my older brother bought Songs from the Wood which had just come out. To this day he doesn't remember why he bought it. I received a Billy Joel lp for my birthday, which I gladly traded to him for his Songs... lp. I lost interest in them after the Beastie album, and rekindled my interest in the mid-90's. I think their best year as a band was 1977. They would play part of Beethoven's Ninth, Martin barre was playing Bach during his guitar solo, etc. They just appealed to me on so many levels.

Amen to that! What hooked me was My God, & later Cup of Wonder.
