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).

Others listed are not American either.

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.

I'll also add Guns and Roses to the list even though their flame burned out too quickly.

Metallica
Aerosmith
Los Lobos
Neil Young and Crazy Horse

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.

Great topic. Don't know who I would pick, but I'll throw out some names already mentioned and some not:

CCR
Tom Petty
Grateful Dead
Beach Boys
Kiss
ZZ Top
Grand Funk Railroad

More fodder:

Steely Dan
Eagles
Talking Heads
R.E.M.
Red Hot Chili Peppers

Think - BAND - not soloists (or singers) with back-up!

Just curious. Who among the aforementioned do you consider not a band?

Still more non american people being added. Make up your mind.
