if I get 5 more:

8. Rolling Stones
9). Steely Dan
10) Paul Simon/Simon & Garfunkel

if I get 5 more:

11) Patsy Cline

15) Phyllis Hyman

and 5 more:

16) James Taylor
17) ABBA
18. Elton John
19. k. d. lang
20). Bonnie Raitt

damn I forgot the 80's groups:
21) Pet Shop Boys
22) Eurythmics/ Annie Lennox
23) The Police/Sting
24) REM
25) Depeche Mode

Ok, someone just slap me. :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

I need more. :evil: I couldn't live without:
26) Stevie Wonder
27) Joni Mitchell
28. Van Morrision
29) The Beach Boys
30) Chaka Khan
31) Marvin Gaye
