Excluding metal, and off the top of my head:

RHCP
Camel
King Crimson
Led Zeppelin
Alice in Chains
Faith No More
Rage Against the Machine
Porcupine Tree
Queen
Rush

Honourable mentions to Joe Satriani, CCR, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix Experience, Primus, Smashing Pumpkins, Sublime and the Eagles.

As I'm getting even more into bands like Jane's Addiction, the Amboy Dukes, Dredg, Allman Brothers, Can, White Stripes and Mahavishnu Orchestra - the list will probably soon change. I might create a metal list later on.

I'm not sure what album it's on, but every time I hear it on the radio, I go crazy and dance to it. I also love how the vocals work in this song. What do you think of this song?

Van Halen - Dance The Night Away
