Your Five Favorite Bands

OK, guys, I have a proposition. First an explanation: One of the radio stations here is asking listeners to send in their favorite 5 songs of all time. I think that would be really hard. So I’m going to start off slow. I want you to list your five favorite bands/singers/artists. No more than five! One question: Should we include solo artists and the groups they sang in together, or separately? Like is John Lennon a separate artist from the Beatles, or should all his work be considered together? What about Paul Simon with and without Art Garfunkel? To me, John Lennon is a different artist that The Beatles, but Paul Simon’s work should all be considered together. What do you think? I leave it up to you.
In future postings I will ask for favorite Beatles songs, then other artists, then perhaps favorite classical and/or jazz and/or show tunes and/or hymns/carols, then eventually, favorite five songs of all time. So be pondering….
