On the top of my list are the Bee Gees.band1 But I am pretty much open to anything with a good melody and if the lyrics are good, too, that's icing on the cake for me.(Hey, I don't ask for much)
There are times though when I need just instrumental soothing of the savage beast. That's when I head into the classical camp, esp. classical guitar.violin(couldn't find a classical guitar.LOL)

I am an old folkie. Harry Chapin, Todd Snider, John Prine, Arlo Guthrie, James Taylor, Neil Diamond, Annie Gallup, Peter, Paul and Mary, Simon and Garfunkel, and Pete Seeger.

When I rock...I like Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Beatles, the Beach Boys, Sugar Ray, the Bare Naked Ladies, and Bon Jovi.

Also the lesser knowns...Delbert McClinton and Bari Koral (met her on an airplane last year)..and a goofy kid from Alabama named Sunshine.

...and Manny Patinkin has the voice of an angel!

I like almost all music!!
I don't have a favourite band, because, the moment I'd say one, I'd remember some other person/band and add them on!!

There is only one group for me...ABBA...

I sit on the computer and play ABBA music. I have my zen moments with ABBA when I get home from work.
If the show Mamma Mia is coming to a town near you-go see it! It was amazing. The music, the story, *sigh*, I loved it! Can you tell?

My music tastes change over time and mood. Sometimes I like classical and other times rock and roll. I'd say outside of heavy medal and bluegrass I like all kinds of music. Right now my wife and I listen a lot to Josh Groban, Faith Hill, and Marc Anthony. Naturally, Christmas music gets a lot of play now.

I like so much of everything. It depends on my mood what I want to listen to. I love Yanni (he was great n concert), Andrea Bocelli, Elton John,Rod Stewart, B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Def Leppard( they were good in concert too), Pink Floyd ( I would give my right arm to see them in concert), and just too many to mention. I like some of Pearl Jam, but not everything. Love a lot of opera. I am like a mixture!

In no order, and this isn't complete by any means, but...

ABBA, Fabnsab! I loved 'em when they were popular and I loved 'em when one would be shamed & fried in the streets for admitting it. Mama Mia will be opening here soon, if it hasn't already.

Classical...lots & lots of classical except I don't care much for say late 1800's forward as a whole.

I missed most of the 70's great rock stuff because I was into vocal harmonies and playing piano & organ for weddings, so I listened mostly to Carpenters & ABBA, etc., the real easy-listening, white bread stuff. So sorry. Fleetwood Mac, James Taylor, Neal Diamond, Andrea Bocelli, Sara Brightman (what a voice). This is just stream of conciousness stuff here, there are a lot more but I am unable to retrieve anything from my brain right now because I am getting old. Maybe we should try this in a format like the "facts" thread, lol. And for the life of me I can't think of anyone popular right this minute.

I would not under any circumstances call me a hip & happenin' music kind of gal.

Oh yeah I forgot I just saw Bob Dylan in concert a couple weeks ago. That was good. Loved Travelin' Wilburys. I'd better stop now.

I recently went to an Andrea Bocelli concert and bought the cheap seats (150.00) and I walked away feeling like I got screwed. He came out sang one song, then another female singer came out and did a song (she was good but not what I was paying for). He came out again sang two songs, then they did a duet, she sang two songs, intermission, and he sang one or two more songs. Overall the woman sang as many songs as he did which was not what I was paying for. I thought I was paying for a one and a half hour concert of Bocelli and I got maybe twenty minutes of Bocelli.

Better to watch him on PBS and suffer the pledge breaks. Better yet, I would be been better going to a Dylan concert.

Sheryl Crow, Dixie Chicks, Neil Diamond, Aerosmith (sp??), Guns N Roses, Elton John, Jewel, Alanis and any old 70's or 80's rock.

Sorry about your Bocelli experience, Maris. I would have been really disappointed, too. One thing about Dylan...he gets out there and does nothing but music. When I saw him, he didn't say one single word to his audience, no warm & fuzzy nuthin'. He simply played and sang the entire time. Definitely got our money's worth out of it.

I love Dylan. I just bought a CD of his that I have always wanted to buy. Nashville skyline where he does the duet with Johnny Cash.

I have seen Bob Dylan 4 times over many years and he just gets better. I also love Josh Groban and Andrea Bocelli. And Mandy Patinkin can make me cry when he sings.

I like the old stuff from the 70s and 80s....and like someone above, I like hoyt axton. I know that's strange for someone that professes to really not like country music. I also like the new stuff. Right now, I'd rather go see Creed than any other group. I follow that closely by train or matchbox 20.

Well, here I am again...prolly the last person to post on this thread. I don't know why I always am so late finding these threads. DUH! Oh well...

I've spent almost 35 years singing backup to most of the country artists in Nashville, but the most incredible voice I've ever heard is Eva Cassidy. I first heard her on an ABC Nightline special a few months ago. She died at age 33...just as her career was about to really take off. I found this link to hear her version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow". I cry every time I listen to it. You'll get a few 'pop-ups'...but I hope you will listen to this precious voice.

Other faves: Diana Krall, Nancy Wilson, The Lettermen, Johnny Mathis, country music's own Mandy Barnett, Dave Brubeck, Jussi Beurling...world's greatest tenor IMO, The Maguire Sisters, Broadway-The Tenderloin, classical.
