And the James Gang as well? Welcome buddy. It's great to see there are younger people still digging this stuff.

You are off to a great start man.

Welcome aboard that man, great list of bands there, I do like the Beatles and the Stones but wouldn't do to have everybody the same

 

[Big Ears]

Most of the bands/musicians you listed were influenced by The Beatles. Clapton worked with them and Dave Gilmour played guitar for McCartney. Ozzy Osbourne was overtly influenced by them. Exceptions would be The Jam who copied The Small Faces and Iron Maiden who were more interested in studded wrist bands.
