Very nice list. Gotta love pink Floyd and CSN and the who and yes and king krimson.

For me best pink Floyd is animals. That album kicks some serious butt.

Having not lived through all time yet, I can't quite say.
However, here are some of my favorite rock bands and/or singers ever that I consider some of the best.

Petra
Stryper
Relient K
Switchfoot
ApologetiX
Rich Mullins
Keith Green
Larry Norman
Steven Curtis Chapman
Michael Card
Michael W. Smith
Amy Grant

and tons others..................

of the secular rock bands, I will say that I like a lot of The Beatles' songs, though I don't agree with all their theology. And definitely LOVE The Beach Boys.
And if we're talking piano players, some of my all time favorites- Keith Green, Michael W. Smith, Elton John and Billy Joel.
And I do enjoy some songs by most all of the artists already listed and there is a ton of different kinds of music that I enjoy and listen to...but I do try to be selective on what I listen to and dwell on.....anything that conforms to Philippians 4:8 and Colossians 3:17 I'm good with. Basically anything that is glorifying to Jesus.
I like bands that have lyrics that make me think and that speak deeply meaningful things to me (yes- and some that are just plain fun- The Muppets, for instance, have a good mix of both.)

Dave Matthews Band.

My favorite artists are: Miley Cyrus, Michael W. Smith, Amy Grant, the Electric Mayhem (does this count?), Billy Joel, Elton John, Neil Diamond, and so on.
