1955-2001 Favorite Top Ten Rock Groups

Shubertmaniac - I like the Isley's variety, at any given time and over the course of their career. Everything from sexy love songs to seriously jammin' electric guitar. They recently released a 3-CD compilation that works chronologically through the past 40 years and is an excellent overview. Their sound changed with the times quite a bit from their earliest stuff, but considering how long their career is, it is surprising that there aren't longer stretches of time where they were "off".
