First of all thanks for all the suggestions you posted. I'm gonna start from the most recent ones (cause I don't know any) Then from the eighties I think I like REM (a couple of songs), then people here have suggested Nick Cave, I think I don't like The Smiths (again, I've only geard 3 songs), and I've never heard about the rest. 70s: I like Slade. I love In The Court Of The Crimson King (only album by King Crimson I've heard). Actually the only band I've never heard of on that list is Sparks. I like the 3 songs I've listened to by Alice Cooper and I also like Badfinger (despite someone here said it was an unrewarding rabbit hole ). And just started listening to Raspberries, cause I recently found out it was Eric Carmen's band. Finally, the 60s. bands of your list I've never heard of: The Seeds The Left Banke The Electric Prunes The Standells Grapefruit Some like The Thirteenth Floor Elevators, Blue Magoos and The young Rascals, have already been mentioned, I think. I love Jefferson Airplane. They were on my initial list. I wanna be like Grace Slick when I grow older lol I starting listening to The Grateful Dead recently too. Cool band! Quote:

The Who are probably one of my top 5 bands, I think I included them on my intial list. I loooove David Bowie!! Thanks to this thread, I also came to appreciate the music made by Donovan, Neil Young and The Faces (and probably some more from your list). About The Rolling Stones...It's difficult to explain, I'm just gonna copy what I wrote in another thread: Quote:

If that doesn't change your mind then they probably just aren't going to be your musical cup of tea. |

That's one of them I'd suggest.
Maybe 'Decenber's Children' as well. |

I'd suggest Between the Buttons just because it's my favourite of the earlier albums

Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing
Between the Buttons has a nice overall psychedelic pop/early 60s (even though it's actually late 60s) feel to it And I think most of the songs from that album are not that well known to the general public (maybe because of the US release inclusion of the two lead singles, which are so good, they kind of shade the other songs), while there are some real gems on there My personal favourites would be "Yesterday's Papers" "Cool, Calm and Collected" "All Sold Out" and "Something Happened To Me Yesterday" also, the guitar work on "Connection" is just pure gold |

Those are pretty much exactly my favourites too
It's really an underrated album

Also, if Mick is the problem for you, maybe you could check out Keith's solo carrier? His two albums "Talk is Cheap" and "Main Offender" are just great. with standout tracks like
"Locked Away" "You Don't Move Me" "Hate it When You Leave" "Demon" "Rockawhile" "Yap Yap" "Struggle" and "Words of Wonder" or "Big Enough" (with Bootsy Collins on bass!) also, his 2015 album has some great stuff on it, like "Suspicious" and the title track "Crosseyed Heart" Also, some of the Stones songs with Keith on vocals are great, like the dylanesque "You Got The Silver", the most positive song on earth "Happy", and the new-wavish beautiful ballad "Slipping Away" [Keith Stone Alone!] |

Aftermath definitely but the debut is great if you dig garage rock. I'm not much of a fan of later Stones either.
