For me, it's Bob Seger. I hate myself for how much I love Hollywood Nights. Also, I feel like Seger was probably just another one of those barely talented white boys who made it big because he literally stole a ton of stuff (melodies, basslines, hell even lyrics) from truly talented Jazz, R&B, and Blues musicians...but maybe I'm wrong. Just a gut feeling
I love me some Tom Petty and CCR.
