INSTRUCTIONS: Choose two highly contrasting bands/musicians/composers. Go to allmusic.com, and start on the page of the first - explore "similar artists" until you reach the second. To prove your achievment, list all artists in the chain from the first to the second.

I was about to give up. But then I saw Jeff Buckley, and I knew everything was going to be ok.
