I've just been listening to some old music, and wondered which of these three bands you like the best:
The Who
Rolling Stones
The Beatles
Or... Other
Grr... I tried to make a poll for this but something stuffed up.
Too bad, too sad... PressF1 craps out as usual.
Beatles fine, Stones yuck. Don't know anything about the WHO - who are they?
None compare to Geraldo, Jack Parnell, Joe Loss, Victor Sylvestor (Ok he was a bit square!), Ted Heath and probably the best of the bunch the American whose name escapes me just now but is known for Chattanooga Choo Choo and lots more.

Roxy and Pink Floyd... They sure shoulda been in my original line-up. I've got Pink Floyd's only video'd concert of Dark Side of the Moon on DVD. Sure, it's missing Roger Waters, but David Gilmour is better on both guitar and vocals. It's awesome!
Re: Best old time UK band? Sounds to me like some of the old fellas must be about 100 with things they remember. The 70's was a good decade for music, alcohol & a generallly carefree life for me. That's the decade when I did the most stupid things.
