Thanks for the shout Glen, and thanks for giving your opinion on that CSNY. I thought about getting it but might not now. Haha.

Hi Glen!!! I watched Robert's video and immediately thought about you, lol..... and then remember another "dust collector" from another well known band "Now and Then" song/release. Btw cool thrift stores finds and cool to see your "obsession" continues. cheers and be well

The Orange Turd has stated he is going to impose 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports starting in January. I wonder how that's going to effect vinyl and cd prices across the border? Because we know both Canada and Mexico are going to retaliate.

I really enjoyed the Fillmore East 1969 live album. I think the best song is the 16 minute version of Down By The River. Great video Glen.

Happy Birthday to Lynne! I listened to the CSNY live album on Spotify and I wasn't that impressed with it. They were all snorting cocaine back then, so that is probably why it sounds so aggressive. It's true, Glen gave away the whole Beach Boys discography last year. I never listen to Hackney Diamonds either. 😃

I'll stick with 4 Way Street and if I'm listening to The Stones it's Beggars Banquet or Let It Bleed.

Do you have any Southside Johnny to have Larry borrow? Happy Birthday to Lynne! It's my brother's birthday too.

That Widespread Panic live album is great. But there aren't really any bad ones, at least I have heard none, and I think, I'm through half their catalog on Spotify. Have you seen the Soulshine event yesterday? You might like that one, it's one set of Goose, Warren Haynes, Nathaniel Rateliff and Dave Matthews Band with lots of guest Derek and Susan, Trey Anastasio, etc. and people sitting in on other peoples sets. A lot of great music, mediocre mix. It's still available on the DMB channel.

Ah. You found Light Fuse, Get Away. Nice. Not a Japanese import, just the design based, I think, on fireworks packaging. WSP are from Athens, Georgia. They met at the University of Georgia. A lot of jam bands formed after meeting at university. Enjoy the lingering lead. Mikey Houser had a unique sound. Panic knows how to jam properly without noodling. You're a Spreadhead now!

I didn’t buy the CSN&Y live at the Fillmore but I’ve streamed it. I think the 1974 live set is their best.

Same here. I purge all my turds(turkeys). The closest I have is Let It Be.

Who is that cd light fuse getaway and who is it by or is that the band ? Sounds interesting tell me cd title and band I'll have to look.for that one.

Great list Glen! You have all the heavy hitte rs like Bill Monroe, Johnny Cash, Earl Scruggs, Miles, Muddy Waters, Hendrix and Dylan. I really hope younger viewers take note and search out all those artists if they've never listened to them. Personally I've been listening to a lot of classic bluegrass lately and can't get enough of artists like Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs, Ralph Stanley, Don Reno, Jimmy Martin and the Osborne Brothers. I'd also ad John Coltrane, Elvis and Buddy Holly to my list.

Hi Glen!!! Well done and cool idea for ranking too...... i think this new video was one installment your audience was waiting to see. Can't argue with Jimi and this big impact in popular music. cheers and be well

Nice List Glen - cheers Brian

Tom Petty, Roy Orbison & Bruce Springsteen are my favourite solo artists from the USA!🇺🇸

Some great picks. I was glad to see Alejandro Escovado and I really like that live album as well. Nora Jones has such an amazing voice. I have a lot of Johnny Cash albums but I don't think that I have seen the one you showed. All of the times that I have seen Bruce are my top concerts. Great number one. Where was Lucinda?

Another great video. Thanks. The Hendrix dilemma also occured to me immediately. Another example of this would be Sparks. Although, ultimately guess they are American.

Mike Bloomfield.

Any list with Petty and Springsteen is a winner with me. Where did Jackson Browne finish? 26th? Great video Glen.

Steve Earle once quipped, “Townes Van Zandt is the best songwriter in the whole world, and I’d stand on Bob Dylan’s coffee table in dirty cowboy boots and say that.” I reckon I’d agree and include Townes on my list. Was at a Steve Earle show years ago and he was saying something political between songs. Some drunk audience member yelled, “just play the f&cking music.” Steve calmly reached into his pocket, pulled out some cash, handed to the front row security man, and said, “give that kind gentleman his ticket money back and show him out, if you will,” and then launched into Guitar Town.

I think I'd have to include Chuck Berry somewhere in my list.

That Earl Scruggs Revue is so good, love it! My Dad met Bill Monroe when he was a little kid, my Dad, not Bill. My list would have Bob Dylan, John Prine, Tom Waits, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Bill Evans, Vince Guaraldi, Sinatra, Elvis, John Mayer. Cheers!

Solid list. Comment on people who look down on CDs. I consider it elitist type slobbery. I grew up with vinyl of course, but I replaced it with CDs when vinyl left the market. When I retired, I downsized my house and sold off the vinyl and equipment. I am no longer in a financial situation to even consider getting back in. But you're right Glen. It's all about the music in whatever form you can listen to it in.

Jack White is awesome, love what he does with The Raconteurs. I got that Beck CD, love it! I'm not into country, but Steve Earle is a major exception, I do like his music. I don't have any Johnny Cash, but I really should get some. Same goes for Ry Cooder and Muddy Waters. I have a great CD box set of Janis Joplin, but the box is falling apart. Jimi is always great. Dylan is great too. All the rest I need to hear more from!

Sly and the family stone , AL Greene. ,

Wow, not only did you invent doing the top US band list, you thought about the other lists people have done before they even did them. Genius. 🤪

Great list, Glen! As I read the title of this video, I immediately knew that Jerry Garcia (90% positive as #2) and Robert Allen Zimmerman, aka Bob Dylan (100% positive as #1) should be your number one and two. I'd add Bob Marley to the list if it were mine.

Odelay"!!! I love every second of this album! If Captain Beefheart is considered a solo act, then he is definitely in my personal top 5! My favorites also include Bill Callahan and Bonnie "Prince" Billy!

Can't argue with these, would consider at least half of them myself. Missing for me, Tina Turner, one of the greatest female vocalists. I'd probably also add Thelonious Monk. When we are talking about favorites, I would also include Joe Walsh as one of my favorite guitar players. Not sure about Warren Haynes, he is my favorite guitar player and singer, but I prefer him in ABB and Mule (still like his solo work). It's kinda similar with Billy Gibbons, Dave Matthews and Stevie Nicks, prefer them in their respective bands.

I probably would have included James Brown in my American favourites.

Hi Glen!!! Yes, you're always in the basement, lol..... nice picks and cool additions to rhe collection. I think Daryll Hall is a very good singer and can't deny the cool songs he had wil John Oates. cheers and be well

Thanks Glen. The Garcia/Grisman set and the Allman's Fox box sound intriguing. - Chris

He was really good in Lillyhammer.

The Steven book is on my wishlist. Have all his albums and even met him backstage at the final US 1984 show in San Francisco. I'm surprised that you don't have his first two LPs, Men Without Women and Voice of America, at least. Classics in my opinion. Unfortunately, the last time I saw Steven in concert was at an awful venue in 2017 where the "disabled seating" was way in the back in the bar where I could barely see the stage. This show was one of the reasons I retired from going to concerts.

Nice review of the VanZandt book! Glen you need to pick up VanZandts first album Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul Great album!! Probably find a used copy for pretty cheap Have to pick up a copy of the book

I do need to get some Steve Van Zandt, since I’m a big Springsteen fan, loved the Sopranos and listened to his Sirius XM channel. I’m pretty behind with my reading as I haven’t started the last two music books I bought on Springsteen and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Always fun catching up with you. You give me so much to check out.

I prefer 70s Hall and Oates over the 80s version. Have you heard the John Hall solo album he did with Robert Fripp?

I have to admit, I have never listened to a Miami Steve album too, something to put on the list. The Final ABB show is so far just digitally released, physical media will be available next week, if I recall correctly. But The Fox Box is absolutely fantastic. Lots of hours of music and only one song twice. And another thing I have to admit, I love ABB, but I'm not a fan of Brothers and Sisters, I know, it's got their biggest hit Ramblin' Man, but I don't care much for that one either, I'd much prefer The Fox Box. What was up here? Widespread Panic released their new album Hailbound Queen, it's nice but a bit too short for my taste, 35 minutes is barely more than an EP, don't think I would buy it. Hannah Wicklund released another teaser for her upcoming album Live at the Troubadour, that's going to be interesting. Still enjoying the new Warren Haynes solo album, it's quite mellow, so I have to be in the right mood, but the songs are awesome, love the one Gregg Allman song draft that he finished with Derek.

0:06 I’m always in my basement.” I’m scared of people that hang out in basements.

I have to pick up the Crimson book. I have his first book from way back when. RIP Peter Sinfield. Iconic lyrics on the debut but I think my favourite lyrics of his were on Lizard and his solo album Still. "A stricken chicken from an ultraviolet prison cell". Iconic.

I never really paid much attention to Hall and Oates I did like some of the songs though. I will check out that King Crimson book. RIP Pete

I'd love to own Brothers and sisters box. But ebay it starts at $69 up to $179. Too much for me they do have 2 cd set..but that's not what I want..oh well if I wait. It may come down

RIP Pete. Love Stevie, great artist. That's cool you are into Darrell Hall. Didn't know that Love Brothers and Sisters. I gave a great vinyl copy. All great stuff my friend ❤❤

A Salty Dog might be my favorite album of theirs. Nice pick up! Nice you finally got the Jon Anderson album, it's so good! 😊 That is a sweet Genesis box set!

I saw the Thick as a Brick tour at Glasgow Greens. Missed the last train home but it was worth it!

Just checked out two songs by Kathleen Edwards. I liked both of them! She’s on the hit list now!
