Those are my favorites!

Eric Clapton in the Derek and the Dominos era.

Phrank · 26 July 2022, 07:25 AM

...all the usual suspects, especially David Bowie and:

NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS - THE SEX PISTOLS!

God Save the Queen!

Sting looks like Doogie Howser. Thank you for posting those clips.

scarlet knight · 26 July 2022, 07:37 AM

I bought their record albums upon release, starting with Sgt. Pepper. They were pioneers and, like Bowie, they evolved.

Later, I did get into New Wave. Elvis Costello, The Smiths, Squeeze, Tears for Fears, English Beat, New Order, Depeche Mode, The Clash.

My pleasure. I actually didn't even know more than the name Dire Straits, until well into the 2000s. I discovered the video of "Walk of Life" and sent it to my brother, who said, "Oh yeah, that's Dire Straits, probably the most interesting band of the 80s." I've been an avid fan of all of Knopfler's work ever since.

I'm also a huge fan of Pink Floyd and having lived during the British Invasion of the Sixties and Seventies, I could have named any number of great British bands.

J/k. I don’t want to get banned.

The Beatles are my favorite group, period.

There are many that I like but none as much as The Beatles.

Frankly there are lots of good brands which makes it difficult to pick one out

.
But The Beatles were just on top for me.

The most underrated musician IMO, so so clever.

Glad I am not the only one out here.

Speedbird-1 · 26 July 2022, 06:02 PM

These were my fave's .......for a while, but The Beatles, always the Beatles.
Jeff Lynn ("Beatle Jeff") is a genuine musical genius.

The Who

RRGHOST1 · 26 July 2022, 08:18 PM

Status Quo,Pink Floyd,Stones,Clapton,Bad Company,Free,Rainbow,Deep Purple,Small Faces,all good bands.

JP. · 26 July 2022, 09:16 PM

Genesis, Yes, Pink Floyd, Camel, The Who... and of course Zep.

I guess Fleetwood Mac is originally British too.

You didn't ask but North American favorites:

Rush, Grateful Dead, Boston. Old Journey wasn't bad, either. I also loved Sammy Hagar-era Van Halen. Never liked DLR as a singer or a person.
