What artists can you not get enough of?


I liked reading the thread about artists you can't stand, so I'm curious which artists you like so much you never get tired of.

I probably should have explained that the range of dates represent for me when I felt a specific artist was either in their prime or in an artistic phase that specifically appealed to me. Miles Davis made great recordings throughout his career but it’s his late 60’s output that is in constant rotation for me.  I absolutely love “Blackstar” which was David Bowie’s final album and one of his best IMO, but view it at as an outlier looking at his post 1980 recordings. I love the Beatles, the Who, Jimi Hendrix, the Doors, Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin etc but don’t play these artists as much today. I have diverse tastes in music and a collection of about 3,000 CDs. Limiting myself to any list was extremely difficult as I regretfully had to leave out a lot of artists I love and listen to frequently.
