A hard one

Rock music has been a constant backdrop in my life. When you look at the evolution of the genre over the past seventy years there are many artist who redefined music. 

Name your top five most influential artists/groups in rock and roll for this week’s Friday Five (and your reasons) in the comments.

It may be hard to limit yourself to five. I will even allow ten, if you give your reasons numbers 6-10 must be considered.

I look forward to the comments.

Eagles, Bonnie Raitt, Bette Midler, Jimmy Buffett...probably more that escape me now.
Why? Because I like 'em. Their music means/meant something to me at the time.

Still can't listen to music or really think about it. Still too painful.

But, here's something:

Beatles; love them or hate them, they changed popular music as we know it.
Three Dog Night; no one had more hits in the 70's than them.
CCR; simple, good rock music.
Eagles; they made popular music popular again.
Tom Petty; he could fill a stadium and everyone knew the words to his songs.
