Top 10 favourite bands of all time.

Must be bands, so name `em.


l'll be very very interested to hear what people say. Music says as much about a person as clothing does.

Regards: Shooey.

Re: Top 10 favourite bands of all time.

You didnt list yours??

I'll play...cuz you're right, music has a HUGE influence on how I dress

in no particular order:
-The Jam (mod revival powerpop)
-Sham 69 (early punk)
-4 Skins (oi/skinhead)
-Minor Threat (hardcore)
-Small Faces (60s pop, not into their later psych sounds)
-Madness (2-tone ska revival)
-Makin Time (80s mod poprock)
-The Chords ('79 mod revival band, not the doowop group of "Sh-Boom" fame)
-Three Bad Jacks (modern rockabilly)
-The Go Getters (modern rockabilly)

Re: Top 10 favourite bands of all time.

I've been on an old R&B and Rockabilly kick lately, which coincides with my recent bow tie kick. 

I don't know if i can call these my top ten of ALL TIME, but certainly my top ten of right now (in no particular order):

Bob Dylan
Yardbirds
Chuck Berry
Buddy Holly
Bo Diddley
Howlin Wolf
Belle and Sebastian
The Kinks (Great as a pop band, terrible as a blues band)
Arcade Fire
David Bowie

The Beatles. To those too young to remember, it's the band Paul McCartney played with before Wings.

Rolling Stones.  They still got it.  Their latest song is "I know it's only a rocking chair but I like it."
