lol... Jen, I've got a couple of Juliana Hatfield CD's myself.... wore Only Everything out on my way to Pittsburgh and back time before last, it and Radiohead.
Cosmo's DM reference brought back Bitchin' Camaro memories, and Axel, I've always been a fan of older Yes (Fragile in particular).
I'm a bit eclectic; Iris DeMent and Shakira, Iron Maiden and Metallica, Black Crowes and the Grateful Dead, Nick Drake and the Shins, Barenaked Ladies and John Prine, Tori Amos and Ned's Atomic Dustbin, Seven Nations and MacKeel and Clandestine; etc. etc., just a really wide range of anything....

I'm a jazz fan (bebop) so bear with me here. It would have to be the band that Miles put together for Kind of Blue: Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans, Paul Chambers, Wynton Kelly, Jimmy Cobb.

How old are you guys? I saw the Dead Milkmen in a tiny little hotel bar back in '87. Are tehy still playing?
As for bands, even with how little I think of Mickey Hart after meeting him (or rather, NOT meeting him in spite of paying him $8500), my all-time favorite band is the Dead, with Jerry preferably.
Peace,

Axel,
If you like Wakeman, check out the Strawbs. Everyone started somewhere... These guys rocked, and still do on occasion.
I'd have to say either Iron Maiden or the Strawbs are my all time favorites. I can't decide between the two, but given only one band to listen to for the rest of my days, it would be the Strawbs, for their variety.
Cheers,
Kennith

Right on, I'm also a fan of Miles...I hear a lot of John Coltrane and Bill Evans on XM 72 "Beyond Jazz." Yellowjackets are good. I enjoy the Dave Brubeck Quartet as well.
It is damn near impossible to list just one band as an all time favorite but here goes mine:
Little Feat
Of course I am talking about the Lowell George years may he rest in peaceatriot:

Matt you have listed two if my favorites there too. So many folks list WP as some sort of "Phish or Dead" like band. They are so much more and by far more talented musically and lyrically IMHO:bigok:
Cheers,
Mike
ps check out Jupiter Coyote if you like Panic.

" Led Zeppelin? Don't tell me you've never gotton the Led out! Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, ring any bells? Ah, what do they teach in this place!" - Jack Black, School of Rock
Led Zeppelin is one of the greatest and most influential bands ever, IMO.
Also probably my fav, but I love the Allman Brothers too.
Oh, and O.A.R is freakin awsome!
