Lets see your lists of guitarists you could listen to nonstop. For me, its the first 3 guitarists in my sig... Jerry Garcia, Peter Green and Duane Allman... I could listen to any one of them from sunup to sundown without getting the least bit tired of it.

While I truly love the others in my sig (as well as quite a few others that I'd put there if it didn't cause the sig to grow beyond acceptable standards) I could make it through a concert, but for various reasons I couldn't listen to too much more than that in one sitting. Jimi would make my head explode, John would make my head implode and for me Clapton just gets boring (now early Clapton is a different story).

So lets see those lists... who could you listen to forever on end?

Evidently with over 8GB of music on my flash stick on continuous album mode play, there are a lot of artists I could listen to for hours. I think it would take a week of continuous listening (8 hours a day at leas) to get through the whole collection.

My current most played ... by choice for workouts listening to the same collection on my phone ... include ... in no particular order:

Foghat (Rod Price)
Great White (Mark Kendall)
REO Speedwagon (R.I.P. Gary :( )
Bad Company
Nazareth
Chickenfoot
The Black Keys
CCR
Rainbow
Foreigner

Those seem to have enough drive for a good workout.

If I am just walking I can add Bob Seger and The Eagles into that list too.

I think I'm going to be more of a "nobody," but for the sake of argument, I'll say SRV and Page.

Whoever Lucinda Williams is using at any given time.

Clapton has some stuff I love, like Pilgrim, Beano, Cream, Dominos, Unplugged and some assorted other good blues stuff. He also has some pretty awful stuff.

Rather play than listen. Am way past having time to listen to anything for hours.
