Re: Best Band Ever!!!!!!! You choose and share you're thoughts!!!!! (231 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Wow, there's a lot of great answers here. Some seem a little under-represented. For example:
The Band - Bob Dylan's "back up" band.
Cheap Trick - not really my style, but pretty influential.
The Grateful Dead/Jerry Garcia - if you haven't heard live recordings, you haven't heard them at all.
Allman Bros.
If you want to hear a great blues guitarist, check out Duke Robillard when he was with Roomful of Blues.
And, another lesser-known east coast band, NRBQ. A funky little group with a fire-breathing guitarist named Al Anderson. He's left the Q, but check out their old stuff, or better yet, see them live.
And where, oh where is any reference to Bad Company? Ditto on The E Street Band.
Just my two cents. And for me, it's not about ticket sales or album sales. It's about the music, and more importantly, the live performance.
