Not sure Rob. I was born in 71. I think the blues and rock'n'roll from America layed the ground work for a lot of them.
Its funny, because technically some of the groups today, probably play their instruments better then some of the groups did back then, but they're not as groundbreaking in their sound.
For the 40th anniversary of sergeant peppers, a few modern bands did some covers.
Here's one of my Favs.

If you look at the list on the right, you'll see the other covers by some other bands.

Danny,
That's cool.
It's hard to imagine that big guy with a voice like that.

Thanks Rob for posting that youtube video of "So What" - I had never seen that clip before and now I'm going to check some of the others on youtube as well. Kind of Blue is the best jazz album of all time with some of the best jazz musicians ever. Although Cannonball Adderley and Bill Evans were unfortunately missing from the video it was great to see Mr. P.C. the greatest jazz bassist of all time and of course Miles himself. One of the things that made So What such a breakthrough when it came out is that the melody is played on bass. This wasn't new to P.C. at the time (Bass on Top is one such album) but it never got the notoriety of Kind of Blue.
If you want to see these guys from the same year minus Miles check out Cannonball Adderley's album "Quintet in Chicago" but be warned it's an entirely different feel. Cannonball likes to swing and this album does.
Thanks again for the video

There is nothing like attending a live Blues Festival.  I just spent the day at one in Riverhead and it was a totally fantastic experience. I had the additional pleasure of watching my nephews band play.  Absolutly great day.

That was the first one for me.  I'm sorry I've waited so long.
