Who loves music!

It can be any catagory of music you like, or if you cant decide, name your favorates! Or if you have favorates in different catagories, name them all if you like.

Also if you know of their site, or a good fan site, please post the link.

For me: Led Zeppelin!

Muse rock hard. They're one of the only contemporary bands I enjoy, although their most recent album was inferior to Origin of Symmetry.

JAG 00:14 10-19-2004
I don't really agree that thier latest album wasn't as good, there was some AWESOME tracks on it - Hysteria and Stockholme Syndrome to name two. They do rock, hard.

Man, I can't pick a favorite, not even 10-20 favorites. Music has been a huge part of my life for most of my life. But here are some artists that I like, that were a big influence on the musical me:

JS Bach (Preludes and Fugues)

EARLIEST POP INFLUENCES/ALBUMS:
Chicago (Chicago IX, first non-classical album)
Peter Frampton (Frampton Comes Alive!) DON'T LAUGH--HE WAS A BIG DEAL BACK THEN!

Jeff Beck/Jan Hammer/Mahavishnu Orchestra (Jazz/rock fusion)

Sex Pistols/PIL (the ONLY REAL Punk)
Journey (yeah ok, go ahead and laugh; I grew up in California so ...)

SEMI-PRO/PRO YEARS:

The Cars (these guys were just too cool)
The Police
Berlin (Is she Bi?; Sex I'm a, Masquerade, Metro)
MISSING PERSONS (OMG ... loved MP; US Drag!)
Motels (Only the lonely ...and then suddenly, last summer .... )
Pretenders (Im gonna make you, make you notiiice ...)
Billy Idol (played almost all of Rebel Yell every night for two years in nightclubs throughout the western US, 1984-85)
UFO/Michael Schenker/MSG
The Scorpions
ABC (Brit technofunky land)
Thompson Twins ( " )
Scritti Politti (NYC technofunky land)
The System ( " )
Depeche Mode (technopop's dark side)
Yaz/Erasure (technopop's light side)
Pet Shop Boys (technopop's dance floor kings)
Frankie Goes to Hollywood (Relax! Such naughtiness is so appealing)
Prince (a musical and entertainment genius)
Jan Hammer (Miami Vice; perhaps my all-time favorite "keyboardist")

THE AFTERLIFE:

Patrick O'Hearn
Prodigy
Enya
Hard Floor (Germany)
Gypsy Kings
Oasis

RECENT:
???

I have been out of touch musically for quite a while. Living in the past I guess, as nothing has caught and held my attention recently. Based on what I've shared here, does anyone have suggestions of music I might like that is current? As you can see, I've fairly eclectic tastes ... .

P.S. Sasaki: very surprised to read your faves ... interesting how musical tastes often breach the time barrier, as evidenced throughout this thread.
