I was young in the 70`s. My favourite band at the time in that era was ABBA. They still are.

ABBA, QUEEN, LED ZEPPELIN.

As far as heavy metal goes (in the broader sense of the term) nobody did it better than the trifecta of Zeppelin, Sabbath & Purple.

Yeah. Forgot Queen...so...

1. KISS
2. Zeppelin
3. Floyd
4. Queen
5. Sabbath

Then you've got The Who, Deep Purple, Aerosmith.

Guess you've gotta put the Stones on there...even though I never ever listen to them.

Both have a good amount of hits. Outside of the hits...not worth listening to. LOT of filler.
