Nah, I think of Yellow Submarine.

Drive by Truckers
Wilco
Jason Isbel

I have really tried my damndest to get into all of these--have 3 albums from each of them. I guess I am just not a fan of Americana.

And Springsteen--to me, meh.

Pink Floyd


I'm surprised it took this long for someone to mention them.

I'm a big Pink Floyd fan, but can see how a lot of people aren't.
theyre sorta their own genre and not really like anything else.
Especially leading up to Echoes (including all the other songs on Meddle) is kinda out there.

Listen to Santana and buddy miles' live stuff


The doors- I kind of get them but I just think they suck and Jim Morrison was a shite head. I liked them when I first smoked pot and thought I was cool in high school

grateful dead

and Pink Floyd

at least the Dead are benign on the ears, it's not good music, but it's not overbearing dread

Pink Floyd assaults the senses

and the guitar player epitomizes cliched Srat playing, unimaginitive, horrible style

You listed them as a band that you don't get. So do you think its bad music, or do you just not "get" it?

Some people like their senses to be assaulted

This kind of. Collins I get, it is just pop crap.

U2 not a clue. Can't stand'em, not a clue on what the attraction is.
