Well I must admit my top band has to be The Doors. The only band I never ‘got’ was Led Zeppelin…
I agree about liking The Doors. At one time they were right up there among my favorites. The End was a masterpiece. We differ here about Led Zeppelin. I am a huge fan. Brought American blues to an international audience as well as the Stones, Cream, Hendrix. Listen to You Shook Me off their first album, or I can't quit you baby. I saw them live in their prime. John Bonham might be the best power drummer ever. I guess we'll agree to disagree!

I’m not adverse to trying them again at some point though

This is blues rock for me, live at The Royal Albert Hall, 1970

It might not be for everyone.

All the blues interpretations by British bands back then sent me on a hunt back in time. I saw Muddy Waters live twice before he died. Holy Shit. Then I really went roots. Robert Johnson, Willy Dixon, Howling Wolf, Elmore James, Jimmy Reed! I could go on all day, but I'll spare you.
