I picked Led Zeppelin. I assume this poll is just about classic rock. Good choices for the most part but how is iron butterfly an option but there is no Black Sabbath or Deep Purple?
rolling stones from 1969 to 1972 i'm not even that much of a fan, but they were powerful then otherwise, the sun ra arkestra or flea kuti & africa 70 [or miles]
Genesis is the best band. Even though their material after the album Duke was shitty, their work up until then was so amazingly innovative, emotional, and mind-expanding that it makes up for their pop era.
The Doors....I sleep with him every night and wake up to him every morning ....my Jim blanket...which is known just as ...Jim in my house. When I ask one of my kids (or even my husband for that matter) to go get Jim for me this is what is brought ..my blanket.
The first time I heard Black Sabbaths NIB back in the early 70's it slapped me upside the head and I've never been the same.
