What are the bands that defined your generation

I didn't have the luxury of being able to turn on the radio and hearing a new Zeppelin song.People can say grunge is what defined my generation,but it's not what did it for me.TOOL in my opinion is one of the 3 greatest bands of all time and what really gets me going.My list would consist of Zeppelin,Sabbath and TOOL.Of course I jam some Elton,Bill Withers,Hall and Oates,Earth,Wind and Fire,Al Green and all that when I get in a mood for it.I even like some country quite a bit.I can go on naming bands and artists that I just absolutely love listening to and 95% of them are late 70's and older.I'm with 67Dart273 on this one,NO RAP!
