Most listened to artist


If you had to guess, which 10 artists have you listened to the most in your lifetime?

Meaning every time you've selected a particular artist's 8-Track, Cassette, LP and CD at home, in your car, at a party, at the beach, wherever.

Mine, in no particular order, would be: The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Kinks, XTC, Elvis Costello, Kate Bush, King Crimson, David Bowie, Brand X.

Probably Tom Petty, Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, John Mayall, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Police, BB King, Neil Young, Buena Vista Social Club, James Taylor.  

Nice to see so much great classic rock artists on the list! 
 

That said, Johnto wins the most unpredictable entry:  Shostakovich in between Hendrix & CSNY! Well done! 

King Crimson

Pink Floyd

Loreena McKennitt

Dead Can Dance

George Crumb

Miles Davis

Theivery Corporation 

Carlos Santana 

Beethoven 

Henry Cow
