    My top 3 would be The Jam, The Cure and New Order (from that list).

    Mentions to Madness, The Police, The Smiths, Stone Roses, Soul II Soul and Wham!

    Pointless exercise unless your the Beeb trying to get more listeners/publicity.

    The best 3 groups are those that you pick and I bet those can change on a daily basis.
