If you had to pick only ONE great band or musical group of the past 50 years who would it be?

I love all kinds of music and I know everyones taste of music is different but if forced to pick only one group since 1970 that was awesome, encompassed uniqueness and range and just fun music overall it would be Earth Wind & Fire. I just loved how they mixed R&B, Jazz, Soul, Pop, Latin and Disco and had lyrics to many of their songs that had meaning and message. Maurice White was a genius and his instrumental arrangements for the bands top hits was bar none. Great Car music 
Thats the Way of the World  
Fantasy 
Reasons 
Getaway 
After the Love is Gone 
Serpentine Fire 
Shining Star 
Cant hide Love 
Boogie Wonderland 
Gratitude....etc

    I have loved Phil Keaggy since I first heard him, and still feel that his music is excellent.
 Lately I have been listening to Passenger, but have deleted the songs with words that my grandchildren shouldn't hear - or me either.
 Are these guys great? Phil probably is, and Passenger is too young to say.

    Genesis. The unbelievable dynamics of that band live makes listening to their recordings a disappointment.

    The greatest singing group of all time, outside of that Heavenly Choir
The Sons of the Pioneers
Still making great music after damn near 90 years and about 50 different members.

    Oingo Boingo. Their song Capitalism is a win above all else.

    The Beatles broke up around 1970 but their solo careers were also sensational.
George Harrison- example All Things Must Pass
Paul McCarthy and Wings
John Lennon to a lessor degree
Even Ringo scored some top ten hits
