>Around 67? I think Jefferson Airplanes, Flying Burrito Brothers...
>Zep were fantastic. I destroyed couple of LP's from listening too much to them:)
>Shifting to the progressive stuff,there was also Procol Harum :) I saw them in concert 2 years ago and they can still rock.

Well you DO live in Rockville! :-)

I saw them on a documentary just last week, along with many bands from the era.

>How about Deep Purple? I really prefer their early stuff , before Gillan , with Rod Evans( DP I & II, Books of Taleysien).

Well I stopped listening to all that metal stuff years ago, never was much of a follower. No memory of implausible "flying" names?

Hmmm, many of the 80's bands had numbers in their names: Haircut 100, B52s, Heaven 17, Level 42 ...
