    All of the early U2 (Boy, October, War, The Unforgettable Fire) and then I stopped loving them when they got popular and their music tanked. Until How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb came out - they've gone back to their roots with that one, and I love them again.

    Huge DMB fan as well, walked down the aisle at my wedding to "Steady as You Go", which is a gorgeous love song. I love all of Dave's music all of the way from when UTTAD came out in 1994, and have seen him more times than I can count. My most favorite album is probably Big Whiskey & the GrooGrux King, put out after the death of their beloved saxaphonist, LeRoi Moore.

    I love music, and have many, many more favorites, but those are my top 2 :)
