Funkadelic, Devo, the Pixies, Ramones, The stooges, the metres, mothers of invention, Miles Davis band. The Doors, Slint, Velvet Underground, The Band, The Supremes. Temptations, Parliament, Butthole Surfers, Pavement, Palace, Byrds, Tortoise, Television so many important and genre defining acts, these just surface scraped without any rational from the foggy confusion of my beleaguered brain. There are so many, I think influence outweighs lemgth or popularity.
