It would be extremely difficult to pick five artists from all genres
of music, therefore I'll confine my selections to rock, folk,
&blues.Here goes:

1). Fleetwood Mac (from Peter Green thru Bare Trees)
2). Pink Floyd (also solo Barrett,Waters, & Gilmour)
3). David Bowie
4). Roy Harper
5). Genesis (thru LLDOB, also Peter's first four)

Am I dating myself? If asked again next week the list may 
vary. No I'm not wishy-washy. I prefer to think of myself as
eclectic.  

And  my wifes's slightly more current list:

1)  Moby - "Everything Is Wrong" 
2)  Innocence Mission (especially "Umbrella")I 
3)  Roxy/Brian Ferry (most romantic live show I've ever seen)
4)  Bob Marley (still a novice, but listening to "Legend" was almost a

      religious experience).
5)  Sam Phillips  

Close considerations:  Sinead, Tricky, Fine Young Cannibals, Sarah
Mclachlan,       

And isn't it a given that all Kate fans are also Beatles/Bowie/Gabriel
fans?
