Topic: Pick Only One #1: Band Posted: May 15 2012 at 08:14 |
Thinking of starting a series of threads like this and posting a new one every few days or something. Will start with some simple ideas such as bands etc, but will throw some random options in from time-to-time. Let's see how well this goes down. So, for the #1 edition of this revolutionary thread series, we'll go with the most basic and obvious option: Favourite Band. The rules are simple:
NO HONORABLE MENTIONS! NO RUNNERS UP! PICK ONLY ONE!!!

YES
Other bands have made some music I may enjoy more but only a few works or during a short career. Considering a combination of average quality of the music and longevity Yes is the one (KC has similar merits but at the end of the day i enjoy more the more symphonic style of Yes).

Only one man gives me goosebumps and makes me giddy like a schoolboy at the same time and that's: Frank Zappa Music is the best!
