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.

I understand.

Kind of the proto-punk - he's equal parts folk-influenced 60s rock, punk/new wave and college radio.

I get that. He's just not my cup of tea.

ETA: However, Pete Thomas - one of the most underrated drummers of all time.
