   Good picks, although I wouldn't consider Zappa to be a polar opposite.   
   I believe I remember reading in the Brian Sweet book that back in the   
   early days, Don & Walt had considered pitching their song ideas to   
   Frank. They thought he was the only guy who would understand their   
   quirky tunes.   
      
   Anyway, I hinted in my previous post that I enjoy listening to Lamb of   
   God. Lamb of God is fine I guess, however I prefer Pantera... so here   
   are my picks...   
      
   Pantera   
   Black Sabbath   
   Zeppelin   
   Delbert McClinton   
   Tool   
   ZZ Top   
      
   I guess that's it
