Best American Band of all time
Re: Best American Band of all time
bam, I don't know what you were thinking. You picked a british band and a canadian solo artist. What up with that?
Lobstros, Neil Young is Canadian (born in Toronto, Ontario).

I'd put Chicago up there. I'd also put The Who and Yes up there too, but they're from the wrong side of the ocean.
And if you want to go back a ways, I like Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven in the late '20s.

I consider Crazy Horse an American band. Neil has been an American citizen for over 30 years now and all of his band mates are from here as well.Turbodog wrote:Lobstros, Neil Young is Canadian (born in Toronto, Ontario).
I'll also add Guns and Roses to the list even though their flame burned out too quickly.

Metallica lost me after the 6th album, but I saw them in Biloxi with the Cult opening and it was a great show. That was the Justice for All tour. Serious jamming.Lobstros wrote:My nominees:

Re: Best American Band of all time
Think - BAND - not soloists (or singers) with back-up!
As John Wayne once said: "Life's tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid."
Re: Best American Band of all time
Just curious. Who among the aforementioned do you consider not a band?Schuarta wrote:Think - BAND - not soloists (or singers) with back-up!
