Not real familiar with those...When I was 20 years younger, I was listening to:

Black Sabbath
Iron Maiden
AC/DC
Nine Inch Nails (Trent was pretty new then ;))
Quiet Riot
Def Leppard
Lynard Skynard
Judas Priest
Led Zeppelin
Bob Segar
Twisted Sister
Queen
Cyndi Lauper
Prince

Sooo many more...But, I'm sure you get the idea...

i listened to these as well (i removed the ones i didnt) but i had friends in bands who turned me onto this mostly british wave in the 80's ..

most of it we had to buy on imported vinyl so it cost an arm and a leg ...

Skynyrd
Black Sabbath
Zepplin
AC/DC
Bad Co
