who would it be? I know we've done this kind of thing before, but things change. Me:

1. The Beatles
2. Led Zeppelin
3. The Rolling Stones
4. The Who
5. Black Sabbath
6. Rush
7. Van Morrison
8. The Allman Bros
9. Steely Dan
10. Pink Floyd

I had to leave out some favorites and truly great artists. Jimi Hendrix would have easily been in my top 5 at one time, but I have found myself listening to him less over the last few years. Others would include Van Halen, The Eagles, AC/DC, Simon and Garfunkle, Stevie Ray Vaughn, The Grateful Dead, The Police (ouch!), Queen, Jeff Beck (dang!), Genesis, ELO, Chicago, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stevie Ray Vaughn, The Clash, Blue Oyster Cult, Guns and Roses, Pearl Jam, Elvis Costello, Fleetwood Mac, UFO, and I'm sure some others. All of those got a lot of headphone/earbud time over the years, and could easily move into the top 10 at any time.

Above all else, love and forgive. Understand that people who disagree with you are not necessarily idiots or your enemies. Respect the wisdom of the founding fathers and individual rights and freedoms. Always see the beauty and humor in life.

I like that too 10 too an extent, but I definitely wouldn't have the Who or Black Sabbath. That question is too tough to answer though.

I was reading some Billboard list and they have Herb Alpert on there. Somehow I missed him and no nothing about him.

then I would have to be a rebel and an outlaw who broke the rules even if that meant armed insurrection and the complete willingness to kill so that I could keep my playlist as broad as I wanted.

Looking for a large and diverse catalog. I got:

John Prine
Hank Williams
Prince
Bob Marley
Tom Petty
Billy Strings
Clapton incl his various bands
Rolling Stones
The Police
Talking Heads

Just missed the cut:
Parliament
George Jones

My Pandora mix is heavy on female voices but this list is a big sausage fest + prince

Foo Fighters get heavy rotation in my playlists

Impossible task, and glad it's not a real thing because it would suck

but I'll play along as it is an interesting thought exercise......

Culled several bands I love because their catalog just isn't large enough (Sex Pistols, Queensnryche).
Other bands I truly love were painful cuts, but couldn't fit them all in there (Cheap Trick, Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Rush).

So in no particular order.....

1. Blackfoot
2. Drivin n Cryin
3. Megadeth
4. Thin Lizzy
5. Jimmy Buffett (gotta have something mellow for the AM)
6. Drive-By Truckers
7. Supersuckers
8. ZZ Top
9. Jason & the Scorchers
10. Van Halen (incl. all Sammy Hagar's stuff). If splitting hairs, I go solo Sammy.

Just realized after looking at it that half are some form of "Southern Rock". And that's perfectly OK with me.

This is too broad, narrow it down to 10 albums.

1 Tapestry
2 James Taylor Greatest Hits
2 Elton John Greatest Hits
1 Every Good Boy Deserves Favor
1 The White Album

1 Jim Croce Greatest Hits

No particular order.

Apologies to Alabama, Eagles, Skinner, Mick and the lot

I for one am glad you are stopping. You are one of the most ignorant posters ever. You obviously think very highly of your own opinion, unlike the rest of us - RockHillTiger

Morrison with Fleetwood Mac.

Just for ecclectics sake, I would want an 11th slot, to be occupied by The Band.

Notable leaveouts, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. Both, to me have the same problem live. They make absolutely no effort to sync their singing to the music, which comes off completely disjointed, and not sounding like the songs on record at all. Dylan, let's face it, truthfully one of the greatest songwriters of all time, but as a singer, meh. (I am also quite sure neither he nor The Boss is going to lose a nanosecond of sleep worrying about what I, or anybody else thinks of them! :))
