I love CCR - I got to see John Fogerty in Dublin a few years back.

This was my first thought.

ZZ Top
Grateful Dead
The Byrds

Kind of amazing, when you think about it, how dominant the UK was during the rock era.

[–] bobbydallas (8671) 5 months ago

CCR always

Of course any CCR fan would likely enjoy Travelin' Band: Creedence Clearwater Revival at the Royal Albert Hall (2022). A rare 9/10 from me; absolute gem.

I saw Aerosmith in concert in Washington DC a few years ago. It was a fun time!

My brain kind of explodes when trying to pick a favorite band 😁 so I guess I'll just give an example of an American band I like a whole lot and the reason in this case is because of their harmonies. I hope you enjoy this song.

I could have named any number of other bands in any number of directions though. 😂

I love Aerosmith and have all their albums.

Great band.

[–] OnanTheBarbarian (13076) 5 months ago

Damn, I thought Aerosmith is British! Great band.

But my favorite American band is either Devo or Alice in Chains. With a huge shoutout to the B-52's.

All great bands 👍

Boston

Did you know that above the door of the Hard Rock Cafe is the inscription, “Well we’re just another band out of Boston”, which is a lyric from their eponymous album: -

Their first album is fantastic. Not sure why I never explored past that.

And just between us Anglophones, I'm sure I'm on record here in saying Faces were likely my favorite rock & roll band and their Five Guys Walk into a Bar... box set is an essential one. And the Kinks occupy a top ten spot overall, especially their late 60s-early 70s output.

They're from Long Beach, California?

I live 5 miles from Long Beach. I even lived there for awhile.

[–] CarterBlunt (1412) 5 months ago

They're from Huntington Beach.

[–] OnanTheBarbarian (13076) 5 months ago

First 5 minutes of the vid they said they're from Long Beach. But Huntington Beach is next door.

[–] diezman (2235) 5 months ago

Too many to mention 😁

Currently listening to The Black Keys- a great American duo from Ohio!

[–] jacotodd47 (2343) 5 months ago

Yep.

Posted this one some time back....
