Top Artists

Well, I passed over 5,000 tracks logged so far in this project, so I decided it was time to make a couple preliminary 'Marsden' lists - one of the top artists he plays most often and one of the top individual tracks played most often. I'm thinking that I'll probably start to do updates to these lists twice a year - each July 1 and Jan 1. It will be interesting to see how things develop over more time.

First up is the list of top artists by number of times played:

1. Pink Floyd
2. SLAVE to the SQUAREwave
3. Frank Zappa
4. Japan
5. Dee Long
6. The Stranglers
7. The Clash
8. The Tubes
9. Blue Peter
10. Klaatu
11. T.Rex
12. Scissor Sisters
13. David Bowie
14. Iggy Pop
15. Pukka Orchestra
16. Rough Trade
17. Simple Minds
18. The Cure
19. Roger Waters
20. The Kinks
21. The Comsat Angels
22. Ian Dury
23. Rammstein
24. The Box
25. The Grapes of Wrath

Pink Floyd, not surprisingly was a ways out in front, and that's not including any of the many Floyd covers that David also plays! Let me know what you think of the list!
