James Taylor is an individual, not a group.

I've been having a hard time deciding which is better: Yes or King Crimson.

I'll ad Jethro Tull, Allman Brothers, Beach Boys, Jefferson Airplane/early Jefferson Starship, Cold Blood, ELP, Genesis, Cream, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, The Pretenders and Black Sabbath.

Really great additions, Infidel. Mahavishnu Orchestra in particular! May I add Return to Forever and the Jimi Hendrix Experience.

He's a one man band...nobody ever said it had to be a group!

Good ones, but early or later Return to Forever, or both?

The OP did.

Semantics

Skipped that (accidentally) in my initial list since Ozzy kept being the prince of DarkNess with a splendid "solo" carreer -- as a result, i must also add in honorable mentions for; Rainbow & Asia & Wings...

Maybe.

He didn't list any individuals. (At least I don't think so. I'm not familiar with everyone he listed.)

1) Heavenly

2) Halloween

3) Gamma Ray

4) Stratovarius

5) Hibria

6) Linkin Park

7) Breaking Benjamin

8) Linkin Park

9) Hollywood Undead

and last but not least 10) DragonForce

Ah something I can really relate to.

Dream Theater, Rush, Porcupine Tree, The Mars Volta, Genesis, Fear Factory, Mudvayne, Breaking Benjamin, Placebo, Anberlin, Liquid Tension Experiment, U2(pre 2000), Blue October, Muse, Finger Eleven...

I could go on forever.  But I wont.

I have another question for you all. What band do you like that you think should be way more popular and well known then they currently are? For me it's Freakhouse.

Greenday, Framing Hanely, Daft Punk, Queen...Fergie, Micheal Jackson (rip)...Lady Gaga, Linkin Park, Coldplay

and almost anything similar. my iPod is a mess. lol

The guys that should be famous are 3OH!3. They have a song on the radio but I think it's going to get whored out by moms.

Lots of cussing? Damn soccer moms...

I know about that, but i heard it on the radio two weeks ago with nothing cencored, but then a day later it blanked out "ho." :/
