Grateful Dead, you’d never get through it all.

I'd just yeet myself off a cliff rather than be denied my music, but maybe Journey? Or Survivor

Hands down, it has to Allan Holdsworth. His music has inspired me in so many ways. His out of the box thinking in music composition and playing always puts me in a good mood.

Alice in chains. Their discography is diverse enough to where Id be fine. They're also hands down my favorite artist so that too

Frank Zappa. So varied and vast. 60~something albums across almost all genres at the time of his life.

Can we pick single musicians that have been in multiple bands and projects?

Aaron Turner

He's been in multiple successful heavy bands, done tons of side projects, solo work, remixes, and one-time improvisational performances that have been released. I've always at least liked everything I've ever heard, and I love most of it.

According to Discogs (and there's more digital-only on bandcamp), he is credited with the following groups:

  • Isis
  • Old Man Gloom
  • Sumac
  • Mammiffer
  • Doolhof
  • Drawing Voices
  • Greymachine
  • House Of Low Culture
  • Jodis
  • Lotus Eaters
  • Split Cranium
  • Summer Of Seventeen
  • Thalassa
  • The Hollomen
  • Twilight
  • Unionsuit

I feel like that'd be enough to keep me occupied and interested.

Maybe something that I haven't heard as much of as I probably should, but also something that would take forever to truly know thoroughly.

Would it be cheating to say Mozart? Like every Mozart piece.

If not, and if this is counting albums going forward, I could make an argument for King Gizz.

I think it has to be Radiohead. Such a prolific band but also such variety! I'd never get bored!

Nice. I will say he's definitely not everyone's cup of tea. But in the works of Frank Zappa "About Holdsworth, Zappa once said, “Well, there’s one other guy whose work I know should be included in that list who I respect and that’s Allan Holdsworth,” when asked about his favourite players."

Eric Chou

I cant believe it either but his songs are amazing. I cant believe I chose him over Jay Chou or JJ Lin lol

The Who

Even though they aren’t the Beatles the amount they have evolved and changed sonically is astounding. The started out pop rock and r&b covers then made one of the first proto-punk songs and then created rock operas. Unfortunately their later work is not as great but the first several albums alone are great and innovative. The first album not innovative but some of the songs and the non album singles are pretty good imo.

Edit: Typo

Led Zeppelin. They had so many musical arrows in their quiver (it is true that some of them were outright stolen from other archers).

Enter Shikari. Every record is good, different than the one before, and undeniably Shikari.

Coheed and Cambria. Epic storyline, a bunch of albums (20+ years of music now), amazing vocals, and lyrics that go above and beyond some of the more stereotypical cliches. I cannot think of another group I listen to more than I do Coheed!

Dream Theater

It’s been 12 years, and I still don’t get tired of them. They blew my mind as a ten-year-old and they still blow my mind today.

I’m constantly finding new ways to appreciate them, like learning guitar riffs or solos, or I recently got back into keyboards, and I’m learning how complicated Jordan’s parts can be. He uses lots of simplistic chords like triads, but he’s constantly changing and evolving the voicings, he rarely repeats the same thing twice. I’ve got Through My Words down and most of Far From Heaven. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of them.

I could name numerous rock bands and singer-songwriters such as Dylan but I’m going to opt for Beethoven. Never tire of hearing his music of which there is music for every mood.😻

Is it cheating to say my own? Then I can just write what I need if I ever grow tired of what's already there.

As a Jazz afficionado, no question that'd be the King of Woodwind, Kenny G.

I'm getting a little giddy at the prospect of only being able to hear his incredible virtuosic performances - sign me up!

Bach if a classical composer is allowed. Bob Dylan otherwise.

Megadeth, Metallica or Sabaton. I would just have to pick one randomly

Ty Segall.

So much variety. So much quality. Lots of albums. I can double down this answer if his side projects and other bands count too.

Can we also listen to albums they played on but weren't the headliner? If so, I'm going with Pharoah Sanders.

Are you Canadian? No one knows who that is outside of Canada or cares about that interview. If it makes you feel better, Dave apologized for his interview. It’s irrelevant. Sold out Wembley so guess it didn’t impact their career 😄

It’s common decency. And Blur showed none. And you think they are great, and that makes sense.

Ask 100 people if Blur were the Beatles of the 90s.

Even oasis is more of the Beatles of the 90s and that’s a bad take as well.

Yeah sure his music is nice until you severely underestimated just how long and hard the Moonlight Sonata is and now when you're into the third movement you realize your mistake but you can't stop now because you already learned the rest of it.

Better person than I am :). My daughter is doing piano 4 right now in her music program and for the end-of-semester recital I keep encouraging her to do that. She just looks at me like I am nuts.
