I've got it. Michael Franks. Kenny Rankin. The Aquabats. Anything with Dave Weckl.

In general I love all of them but they've gotta count as dorky, right? I mean, I think they're all pretty cool, but at the same time...

Good call on Michael Franks. He's definitely uncool and also pretty great.
This is an excellent rectangle

The Avalanches only album from 63. Pure instrumentals. A fun Wrecking Crew album. Vintage Fender guitars, bass, and amps. :)

Fun fact: TMBG recorded the original Daily Show theme song as written by Bob Mould.
Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the theme went hip-hop'ish when they got Trevor Noah? It's like some white guy thought they needed to make the new black host feel comfortable...maybe Mr. Noah approved it, I don't know.

That song is awesome! I didn't realize Hal Blaine had his own outfit. I love this era of zany sounds and ridiculously overused, but super cool effects. Man I gotta deep dive this thread.

Unironically love Huey Lewis and the News. I once went on a long binge watching their official live concerts from the mid-80s and that was a tight stage show. Killer songs too. Definitely not 'cool' though in the way that I think this forum would define it, though.

Forgot this thread existed.

Not sure she counts but I'm officially a Taylor Swift fan.
