Tough to narrow it down to 10, but this list (in no particular order) is probably accurate. I go through phases with genres/bands/artists, but I never tire of listening to these 10 and I don't think I've ever stopped listening to any of them for more than a few months at a time since I first heard them...
The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
Jimi Hendrix
Frank Zappa/The Mothers of Invention
Captain Beefheart/The Magic Band
The Doors
Neil Young/Crazy Horse
Sun Ra
John Coltrane
XTC
As far as current obsessions, I'm re-visiting my love for soul/funk/jazz with the following (again, in no particular order.)
Curtis Mayfield
Isaac Hayes
Roy Ayers
James Brown
Mandrill
Grupo Fantasma/Brownout
Marvin Gaye
War
Bernard "Pretty" Purdie
The Isley Brothers
I can't think of any guilty pleasure bands/artists. I'm going to see the three remaining members of The Monkees, at a club next month. They are probably as close as I ever get to guilty pleasure music.
