In the 70's he mentioned liking Queen and Gentle Giant. In later years he occasionally mentioned liking some new wave or alt-rock songs here and there. He also mentioned liking the guitar playing of Jeff Beck and Allan Holdsworth.

I recall 80s interviews where he mentioned liking songs by Gerry & the Holograms, The Slits and the Tom Tom Club. He also liked a few songs on the Velvet Underground's 1st album, and had a lot of nice things to say about Autosalvage in the 60s.

I know he said he liked Dylan up until Blonde On Blonde, which he dismissed as "cowboy music." :roll:

I just realized that someone had already mentioned them on the previous page. No slight on The Stranglers was intended. I love 'em!
