This was very hard.  I love lots and lots of bands.  I'm afraid by classifying these in a Top 15 list from least favorite to most favorite makes it look like I like one band more than the other; but really, most of these are pretty equal in my book.

15. REO Speedwagon
14. Supertramp
13. Bruce Springsteen
12. Elton John
11. Aerosmith
10. Dire Straits
9. The Spin Doctors
8. Foreigner
7. Billy Joel
6. The Beach Boys
5. Joe Jackson
4. The Police
3. The Time
2. Santana
1.  CHICAGO*



*Before they started to suck in the 80s

Grandaddy is a good example; even though I don't listen now, they had such an impact on my songwriting and were played so much that they maintain a very high spot. This is ALL TIME, after all.
