My kid asked me this today. I could not decide between Pink Floyd and Bob Dylan.
 

I don't know if I can choose a favorite, I like so many rock groups. I would say Led Zeppelin and Neil Young.
 
I like both Led Zeppelin and Neil Young but I think i've been a fan of Neil's longer.
 

Neil Young is awesome. Have you heard the 20-min version of Down by the River he did with Phish at Farm Aid?

Pink Floyd would have to be my first choice. They've been doing "deep" since they started up ...

That's what i was leaning towards as well, but then Dylan can write some really insane deep stuff too. I guess i like PF's music better, but Dylan's lyrics better. :sentimental:
 
Don't have a favorite, but, some good ones have been named, love


but then, I also like, there are so many more, like I said no favorites, these are just some in the Rock n roll category


 
Not really sure what a "deep lyric" band is... Lyrics that have hidden meanings and innuendos? If so then I would say the later dated Beatles songs.

I just posted ones that I felt had a bit of substance, at least to me, don't how some others classify it, but for me there's some feeling and depth to the words, maybe some pain and suffering even in a lyric or two. LOL!

I just could never get past Dylan's whiny, nasal voice, so as a result I don't really know much of his stuff.

You're right Phil, I think second after PF might be Moody Blues?

Good choice - I agree that some of their stuff is fairly deep.
 
A lot of the 70s 'prog rock' bands could be described as 'deep and meaningful' OR 'impenetrable and meaningless' depending on your point of view. On the other hand, the allegorical meanings deep within this offering from 'The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown' provide us with an insight into the 'human condition' expressed in terms of fruit :)
