Pretty sure this is code for "It's a tossup between One Direction and the Jonas Brothers"

I told you that in confidence! :-P

Van Halen.  Either era, but I tend to lean to the David Lee Roth stuff.

For individual artist I'd have to say that I really like Norah Jones. I know she's not a band but I've got all or almost all of her music and she puts on a great show.

For band... that's not easy. I have favorites in different genres.\

Country - Zac Brown Band

Rock - Guns 'n Roses (old stuff, not the new stuff 20 years later). Velver Revolver sounds a lot like Guns 'n Roses since it's them minus Axl Rose.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Cherry Poppin' Daddies for that genre.

Motown - The Commitments

Quirky/Jazz/Retro - Post Modern Jukebox

[trickyputt]

Tom Petty, Kid Rock, Steve Miller,David Gilmour

I have no favorite band, per se. During the different decades I have had favorites for a while.  I have 100s of mixed CDs with various bands on them. A lot of my favorite music is stuff I have changed over to CDs from 8 tracks, and cassettes. I have been hearing from grand kids that even CDs are becoming a thing of the past.

However, if I had to pick my favorite bands I always enjoy listening too, regardless of my mood it would probably be The Heart Breakers pretty much anchored in a tie with The Eagles.  Then again, it's tough to beat a really good country/western song when the timing is just right. Just about anything by George Strait and his band is relaxing to listen to.

When it comes to ear ringing, hard rock, I have just about everything AC/DC has put out.

REM as mentioned above, are also pretty good.

I appreciate that Slice.  There are actually more rockers that hang out here than I realized...

I've been playing guitar for almost 20 years trying to emulate him. Closest I got was playing Eruption and Hot For Teacher at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Van Halen.

There isn't a close second for me.

I would have to agree.    Hopefully, you meant the real Van Halen version ... w/ DLR.

Ozzy solo stuff would be a close second (take your pick of which guitar player - all 3 of them are legend - as a fellow guitar player who still plays mostly all 80's metal, JEL is my fave)

After that, its just a mix of Dokken, Crue, Triumph, Ratt, Scorpions, Maiden, etc etc

I love the Hagar version too, but nothing beats original EVH.

Jake E Lee is a beast, but I gotta go with Rhodes....just an absolute legend.
