[The Mayor Of Simpleton]

Porcupine Tree are brilliant. I believe that David Gregory (XTC) did some work with them once?

HTFCew - I wouldn't have had you down for some of those!

 

Seen 7 of those live - not seen your list yet?

Too many to mention, but last few I played in the car were by

 

Radiohead

Killers

Pink Floyd

Arctic Monkeys

Santana

Blackfield

Porcupine Tree

Walker Brothers

ELP

Muse

Traffic

Love

Neil Young

 

Good call! Glad I got to see them live.

 

Seen 3 others on your list live as well.

HTFCew - I was sure you would be more into old fashioned 'crooners' such as Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Andy Williams, Perry Como, Dean Martin, Engelbert Humperdinck, Johnny Mathis, and Gene Pitney

I saw Gene's concert in Cardiff the night before he passed away. A true legend and extremely talented.

So, Rhodes, that's two of us you were completely wrong about - about par for the course for you.

 

Any chance of you sharing the other 9 in your top 10?

At the end of the day the likes of Gene Pitney, Neil Diamond, Neil Sedaka, Andy Williams and even Barry Manilow should be on everybody's list rather than what they call music nowadays

Forgot to add Yes - only listened to that one yesterday as well.

He did some work on Lightbulb Sun.

If you like Porcupine Tree you'll probably like Blackfield as it was co-founded by Steven Wilson

Why? People like what they like.Just because they disagree with you (not that we know as we still haven't seen your list rather a lot of criticism of other people...change the effing record please)

[Eastside Urchin]

Portishead

Massive attack

Radio head

Charlatans

Oasis

Stone roses

Biffy cliro

Blur

Jam

The kinks
