Not sure about 5 favorite bands, but here's top 5 artists.
1. Steven Wilson 2. Neil Young 3. Todd Rundgren 4. Mike Oldfield 5. Beck (not the Jeff one) All of them are very important to me and helped me shape my music taste. hey and look at this... they are all great guitarists. |

Nice to see some love for Steven Wilson's guitar skills. He's incredibly talented in that regard, especially when it comes to his solo work

Yes! I don't see enough people talk about his playing. His solos on The Sky Moves Sideways are beyond amazing; you don't need to play a lot of notes in order to be good. edit: is that Hange on your avatar??

I did bands before so a list of solo artists this time
1. Vangelis 2. Mike Oldfield 3. Kate Bush 4. Natasha Khan (Bat for Lashes) 5. Steven Wilson Top 3 are well out in front of anyone else in my book for creativity and longevity. Natasha Khan has produced 5 masterpeices in my view (3 of those received Mercury prize nominations) so I struggle to understand why she isn't talked about, I'd say 'more often' but actually just at all would be nice! Wilson is almost as good as her!!

Hard to choose for my top spot, but Floyd gets it for longevity, but The Doors were something else.. 1967 to 1971. 1. Pink Floyd 2. The Doors 3. Chicago (70s) 4. Led Zeppelin 5. The Who and then a lot of prog.. some international.. less jazz. even less classical.
