I'll make my list of the most recent purchases of CD's I've made (past couple of years) -

Who's Sugarland's lead singer? SugarBabi?

It surprises me that a lot of you are Raspberries fans and have the Beatles buried somewhere near the bottom of your lists...

Here goes: #1...Always the BEATLES(solos)...never fluctuates...

Next batch changes from time to time...But they are always in the next group...

Raspberries/Carmen

Pezband

Badfinger

Dwight Twilley

Cheap Trick

John Waite/Baby's

NEXT FLUCTUATING SECTION

New York Dolls

T-Rex

Alice Cooper

Sex Pistols

Joan Jett

Squeeze

OK, I've been asked twice via PMs to name my favorites.....I'll try to do so in approximately chronological order (but in no particular order by decade..and YES, I know, many of these artists overlapped into other decades) -

Pre-60's - Hank Williams, Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf, Otis Rush, George Jones, Elvis Presley, Johnny Burnette & The Rock & Roll Trio, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Buddy Holly, Ray Price (until he went Nashville)

60's - Dylan, Beatles (& Lennon as solo), Beach Boys (and Brian W.), Dave Clark 5, Hollies, Searchers, Rolling Stones, Kinks, Byrds (and Gene Clark, McGuinn & Hillman solo, Flying Burrito Bros), Gram Parsons, Supremes, Otis Redding, Jimi Hendrix, Wilson Pickett, Moby Grape (and assorted solo efforts), The Move (but not ELO), Easybeats, James Carr, The Who (up until Tommy), Dusty Springfield, Love (& Arthur Lee), Zombies (but not Argent or most of Colin's solo material), Buck Owens, The Four Tops, Ronettes, Creation, The Action

70's - Flamin' Groovies (plus Roy Loney, Magic Christian), MC5 (plus Sonics Rendezvous, Wayne Kramer), Stooges (& most of Iggy's solo work), Raspberries (and assorted solo efforts and offshoot bands), New York Dolls (and Thunders & Johansen, except for Buster Poindexter), Roky Erickson, Free, NRBQ, Toots & The Maytals, Dictators, Ramones, Frankie Miller, Radio Birdman

80's and beyond - Teengenerate (and assorted offshoot bands), Thee Michelle Gun Elephant, The Kaisers, The Wildhearts, Motorhead, The Swingin Neckbreakers, Muck & The Mires, Hasil Adkins (who's really timeless), plus tons of power poppers (D.Twilley, C. Von Sneidern, Shoes, etc.)

"Nope, this one is a cutie named Jennifer Nettles. And this subarbaby doesn't have red hair... "

She's the real deal, rock, country, anything. How about a Carmen/Nettles duet on High Cost of Loving You? Lot of vocals there, lot of harmony opportunities..

Come on guys, work with me on this one.. Country music has never been bigger, and as it keeps inching over to pop, some how, HCOLY should see the light of day.

With his divorce I still say it would also be a perfect and appropriate fit for Garth and Trisha.

I'd do anything I could to hook my trailer to Jennifer Nettles now before she gets too big.
