But I really like a variety of music
can't say I'm a fan of your music taste but your set up looks very interesting 👍

Frankly there are lots of good brands which makes it difficult to pick one out.
But The Beatles were just on top for me.

Often forgotten. Howe had a great voice.

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.

The Psychedelic Furs.

I was 16 in 1984 when this song came out and I thought it was the most romantic song ever. A million years later, I still do......

What a great thread!

I was born in the 80’s so I grew up with some great British bands to listen to..

Dire Straits. Romeo and Juliet is my favourite song of all time. Mark Knofler has to be the most underrated guitar player of all time.

Paul Weller. His Jam days and solo stuff. Some great British music there.

For me though. The Clash is the best band to ever exist. White Man in Hammersmith Palais is my favourite song of their’s.

Tull is definitely in my top 5. Seen them many times since Songs from the Wood.
Can’t believe how young Martin looks in that pic. Lol

Right now, it’s XTC. Love how English they sound (Robert Wyatt has a similar appeal in terms of how English he sounds), incredible writing and production, and just so joyous and weird.
