Oldies but Goodies

Led Zepellin, Beastie Boys, and Queen.
Oh, how could I forget the beatles?

Incidentally California Dreamin' is still the best pop song of all time in my opinion.

There are far too many good songs and artists from that time period to mention...

So I'll mention (controversially) the artists that I DON'T like...namely Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones - neither of them set me alight at all. I feel someone should mention Pink Floyd in this thread though, and nobody had before now...

If the 90's are now counted as oldies, what are everyones favourite 90's one-hit wonders? For me it has to be Edwyn Collins - A Girl Like You and the New Radicals' - You Get What You Give. There are loads that I could mention though...

P.S. I know that Edwyn Collins isn't technically a one-hit wonder but he was, in my eyes, in the mid-nineties.

And now for some even older stuff, like 30's, 40's, and 50's:
Glen Miller
Tom Dorsey
Muddy Waters
Dion and The Belmonts
Del Shannon

Danny and The Juniors

And still many more.....

Here's a question that just popped into my head...What does everyone think was the single best year for music?

Being predictable and sticking with my lifetime, I'd have to say 1996...I'm a huge Britpop fan and it was all over the place that year. I'm not someone who cares about genre or how 'cool' music is so I'm judging all the pop music of the year as well as just the bands I like per se. 1994 and 1995 had loads of great stuff as well, actually 1995 runs it a very close second.
