I can't believe no one has mentioned the greatest amercian band of all time CCR CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL

[huedell]

Just thought of another one.....

The Cars

Their first album was GREAT

Not many better albums released than that one.
Its in my top 10

Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band. His band always killed it. Especially Zoot Horn Rollo.

Also, like on Hardy Girl's list, Parliament/Funkadelic ruled.

And yes, misterdroid, The New York Dolls.

Bleib Alien/Roky Erickson & The Aliens

[megoat]

Chicago

It's okay, I often feel invisible and sometimes even I don't pay attention to myself

CCR rules. My only problem with Creedence is they never made THE album. But man, Fogerty wrote a ton of great, great songs.

Somebody named America ...

Actually, I think America is a British band

I heard an Eagles song yesterday, and thought how great they sounded, and still do.

They're about as close as America's Beatles as anyone ever got.

I seen 2 Eagles in real life ......

Joe Walsh and Tim Schmit

No, I've met Gerry Beckley of America. He's not Brittish.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Eagles are my favorite band period, so I put them up top. I got to seem them on the "Hell Freezes Over Tour". Expensive for the time but well worth it. They sound so perfect you'd swear they were lip-synching.

Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band would be right behind them. Kind of skirts the line of solo act with backup band though...

Lynrd Skynrd
Allman Brothers
Marshall Tucker Band
CCR (although they were heading out by the 70s)
