I like pretty much all of my parents favorite bands. Actually, most of them are my favorite bands as well. These include:

CCR, Clapton, Rolling Stones, Hermans Hermits, Simon and Garfunkel, Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, Bob Dylan, Beatles, Beach Boys, Eagles, Boston, etc....

I am 23, my parents are 55

My dad was a fan of the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Sex Pistols, The Doors and quite a lot of other older rock bands. The ones I named I am a fan of also.

Edit: Eric Claptop (and associated bands, cream, etc.) and David Bowie are others we both like.

My dad was more of Big Band era music listener (Artie Shaw, Bennie Goodman, Glenn Miller, etc.) About the most adventurous he got was John Denver. Mom on the other hand had a wide range of music likes; she surprised the h*ll out of me one day, tapping her foot and humming along to Stranglehold by Ted Nugent. Her favorites that she and my brothers and I shared were (in no particular preference):

Beatles
Moody Blues
Yes
Simon & Garfunkel

My dad was the person who got me listening to classic rock.

Depends on what you mean by "Like".
My mom likes Rolling Stones, so do I, but I'm not crazy about them.
I fucking LOVE Iron Maiden, my mother certainly enjoys some of their works, and she's expressed her admiration for them as musicians.
