Didn't dislike EC, but nothing ever grabbed me.

The Cars


I was always a Cars fan, but ended up preferring the Benjamin Orr songs.

Springsteen


Meh - a song here and there - I always thought Bob Seger did that kind of thing a lot better.

Warren Zevon


I probably only heard Werewolves until I was 15 - - I like a lot of the WZ as I get older - Lawyers, Guns and Money is one of my personal theme songs.

Honestly, I think that whole group you named is lumped under the category of "Classic Rock" now -

Remember, I don't mean acts from that period I like now -- I'm talking about acts I listened to at the time.

I like some Seger stuff from the '60s but he got pretty bland in the '70s, aside from "Get Out Of Denver"

Elvis Costello is probably my favorite songwriter of the last 40 years. His album Imperial Bedroom is in my personal top 5.
