I couldn’t possibly. I am delighted to see Bowie and Ultravox in here though.

Number One is easy. Nothing comes close to my love for David Bowie.
1. David Bowie The remaining four places? I’m really not sure there are any firm favourites that would indisputably sit there, and it really probably would change depending on time and place, and simply how I’m feeling. But if I go purely by those who I have kept returning to over the years, and who I still listen to often, I guess the following would have to fight it out: Alice In Chains Black Sabbath Iron Maiden King Crimson Iggy Pop Queen Lou Reed Tool Neil Young I guess that makes an unordered top ten? 🤷🏻♂️🤪 (Until I realise I’ve missed someone out….) |

1. Frank Zappa/Mothers
2. The Beatles 3. Steely Dan 4. Black Sabbath 5. Slayer I guess? I tend to think in terms of favorite albums more than artists to be honest.
