Classic Rock's 50 Greatest Live Bands Ever

[Shadow298]

Mick Ronson was critical to Bowie's success IMO. He was also a major influence on Randy Rhoads...

you must also count the start of Bowie's career he played with The Spiders From Mars and several members of that band followed him into his solo career away from the Ziggy Stardust persona.

also add to the list The Cure -who put on a tight 3 hour show without bullshit on the Blood Flowers tour.
