There are too many.

Obvously,

The Beatles
The Who
Led Zeppelin
The Kinks
Rolling Stones
Small Faces/Faces
Queen

Just for starters.

I would include ELO in any list but they are Jeff Lynne plus musicians.

Steve Hughes' hilarious rant about X-Factor, listing some of the wonderful bands the UK has produced. Filmed at 'Live at the Apollo' in 2011.

For me:
Supertramp
Beatles
Pink Floyd
Squeeze
Led Zeppelin

 

Supporting Crystal Palace since 19.45 on 29th August 1972 (approximately)!
