990 - Beth Orton - Orton is an indie folk artist that got good reviews in Blender magazine, which is where I first heard about her.
989 - Dave Grohl - The drummer for Nirvana and the lead singer of The Foo Fighters has had numerous side projects, but this particular spot is reserved for his solo side projects, including the hilarious parody of "With Arms Wide Open".
988 - Love - A legendary "forgotten" 70s band that had one amazing album and then pretty much disappeared.
987 - Gerry Rafferty - The lead singer of Stealer's Wheel had a handful of hits on his own, including the brilliant "Baker St.".
986 - Head East - They only had one major hit, but that song ("Never Been Any Reason") is one of the signature songs of the 70s.
985 - The Kickback - A punk band from Vermillion, South Dakota, The Kickback was another great band I discovered in Pierre.
984 - Carl Perkins - One of the first great artists of rock n roll, there probably wouldn't have been an Elvis Presley if there wasn't a Carl Perkins first.
983 - The Greenhornes - A 60's garage rock throwback and a favorite of Jack White, The Greenhornes have a solid resume of blues rock and Beatles-esque tunes to their credit.
982 - Indigenous - One of the best and most successful bands in South Dakota's history, Indigenous was a solid blues rock band that earned a small measure of national acclaim.
981 - The Manchester Orchestra - Manchester is an indie rock band that's just getting started, but could have a bright future ahead of them.
