Probably a better thread than the top three. Having posted those, the next three pick themselves:

Happy Mondays
Stone Roses
Ride

Edit: I can't do this. Ranking in order of best-ness when you love hundreds of acts is not something I can do.

I'll give you three very good bands that have been seriously overlooked

Legendary Pink Dots
Burning Skies of Elysium
70 Gwen Party

Indeed, that’s why I hijacked a top 3 to make it a top 6.
Still pointless though as I have about 20 bands in my top 6!

With the top three (obviously) comprising of Deep Purple, Rainbow with Uriah Heep in third… MAN it’s tough…

I’d probably go for:

Caravan
Family
Barclay James Harvest/Atomic Rooster….

I simply can’t decide

Awesome - the Ash nearly made the cut for Phoenix alone - a top 10 entity in my ROCK world…

Rory I’ve always struggled to get into, which is frankly odd ? Even now, I just don’t know what it is ?!?

Mind you, I consider Gryphon one of my all time favourite bands, so perhaps it’s just me ?!?
