[MrMusashi]

you really should limit it to top 5 bands right now

most of us could prolly go on for hours about who, what.. then remember some more related to just that one band.. hehe

my top 5 listening list as of right now:

ac/dc.. the new album runs continually
the temptations.. 1976 album wings of love, more specifically the song up the creek without a paddle. that is one awesome groove!!!
eric lindell.. low on cash, rich in love.. he has that delbert mc clinton quality in his voice and the album is lovely skewed.. by that i mean its a bit rough.. guitars not 100% in tune and his voice is also not 100% in tune at some points. i do however believe they did it on purpose to give it that sound
tribal tech.. face first.. not much more to say about that than gary willis is one awesome groovy player with a chunky tone and impeccable intonation (can you hear he is playing on a fretless?).. scott henderson.. bluesfusion at its best!
also would you believe that i have alvin and the chipmunks on my playlist??
my kids are hooked on alvin and the soundtrack from the latest movie also get a fair share of playing. not because its that good, but because

MrM
