    A lot of great artists being mentioned. Naming just 5 is difficult - if you ask me tomorrow, chances are good that you'd get a different list - but today - In no particular order...

    - Beck
    - The Shins
    - The Black Keys
    - The Flaming Lips
    - Elliott Smith

    And honorable mention to Maggie Estep... who, I was shocked to discover, had passed away earlier this year. RIP Sex Goddess!
