Lot's of good ones in there. Saw Robert Randolf by accident when some friends took me to see Damien Marley. Robert Randolf absolutely blew me AWAY! every one in the band was absolutely top-notch!
 
Primus is one of the best there is! Even better now that Tim Alexander has re-joined the group. Looking forward to their annual New Years Eve concert in Oakland :rockon:

Heh. They're honestly not usually my first desire to listen to but they, like a lot of other stuff, are in my playlist.

I'll listen to anything well-performed, once. And it'll probably stay in my collection just in case.

There's probably not a musical genre that isn't in there somewhere. Thank goodness for smart playlists.
 
This too. I have This and love it.

Man, I would have loved to see that. I did get to see Doc Watson and Vassar Clements once. But they certainly don't get better than Ricky Scaggs.
 
Wynonna's Big Brown Beaver - one of my all time favorite music videos (do they even make those anymore?)

Definitely heroes of rock, and among my favorites. Only reason I'd say they don't rise to the very top is that they had flashes with greatness rather than continual longterm greatness.
