I don't listen to much 50s or 60s music, so I don't really have a favorite band from those eras, though I do like some of the music.

So, excluding those:

1970's: #1 is definetly Aerosmith, with Heart a close second.
1980's: Madonna. Not really a band. So if I had to pick a band...it might be The Police or Culture Club.
1990's: Guns N Roses. I also like Live.
2000's: Too soon to judge for sure, but front runners are: Aerosmith (having produced in my opinion one of their best albums since the 70s, and promising more good stuff soon); Nickelback; Linkin Park

I'll start with the '60's because the '50's was a little before my time:

60's: The Beatles. the Stones, the Who, Jimi Hendrix Experience,
and Steppenwolf. Bob Dylan had a lot of great songs. It's easy
to say the first two but when I went back to listen to them, it
was amazing to hear how original and ahead of their time they
were. There was so much good guitar back then.
70's: Black Sabbath, KISS, Rush, Blue Oyster Cult, Led Zeppelin,
Ted Nugent, Deep Purple, UFO, Van Halen, the Scorpions (before
they got major popular in this country, they had a great guitar
player named Uli Roth), Judas Priest (saw them open for UFO in
1979!!), Jethro Tull and Yes. The decade I started playing
guitar. I was so starved for rock and metal because disco was
so stinkin' huge...
80's: AC/DC, Ozzy, Iron Maiden, U2, Motley Crue, Cinderella...I have so many bands to name....especially Metallica and Megadeth, and it got to the point I missed great bands like Winger, Warrant, White Lion and Whitesnake in the 90's. I realized I wanted to play guitar (again) after seeing Metallica perform on the Grammies in 1989.
90's: Alice in Chains, early Soundgarden, Screaming Trees, King's X, Pantera. Testament, Dream Theater, some Smashing Pumpkins.

I forgot from the "double-zero" decade: uh...
My old metal fave from the 80's.......... Nothing grabs me as much
today. I like Nickelback and Creed, and Soulfly. Disturbed. Stained. I got to keep my ears open and not rely on the radio.
