Top 15(and beyond)

For whatever reason, John urged Jim and I to come up with our top 15 musical groups - period.  It's easier to come up with the top musical "influences" - meaning that they were loved in the past, but maybe not so much anymore.  You know what I mean.

In my case, I grew up on what my siblings listened to - and I am very grateful for that. Talk about the treasure trove of music - Johnny Cash from John, the Beatles from Joyce and CCR from Dennis - can't get any better than that.

Here is what we come up with - NOT IN ANY PARTICULAR ORDER!  (John wanted me to put punctuation on that.) And there may be more than 15, or less.  Just saying.

Dire Straits
Cheap Trick

Me: (again, in no particular order, and I know I'm leaving a lot out...)
