After a painstaking process of listing my favourite artists in particular music genres and then trying to splice all the lists together, including the near impossible task of figuring out who I like better than whom when the two artists are from completely unrelated styles of music - I have finally worked out who my top 125 musical artists are.
It's still not perfect though. There's no Jazz or Classical, so it's only rock, pop and beyond.
Here's the top 12:
1. Nine Inch Nails
2. Autechre
3. Pink Floyd
4. Slayer
5. The Cure
6. The Who
7. Mike Oldfield
8. Rihanna
9. Aretha Franklin
10. The Prodigy
11. Judas Priest
12. Iron Maiden

It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

GMR, are you wanting other people to post their lists? Do you want commentary on yours? I'm not sure about the purpose of this thread.

The only artist/band I can name is New Order. After that I'm constantly on the lookout for new music. I can name favorites from the past year but not all-time. Check my last.fm account for most played since 2005 if you wish.
