Great music acts, you only started to appreciate in later life?

For me, one would be Depeche Mode. I recall getting my ear peirced in my mates bedroom, around 1989. He had Depeche Mode concert VHS playing as the deed was done. I have to say, at the time, i found the music to be creepy and a bit unsettling.
But here i am 30 years later, and i really enjoy/appreciate the band, more than ever. In my opinion, we need to enjoy these acts, while they are still around.
For the record, i did always enjoy the odd song from the band, here and there, but never really dived into their albums until much later in life. Im so glad i did. Brilliant band!

Just got SOngs of Faith and Devotion on vinyl last weekend.  Great album.  This is the Song Of album U2 wishes they could make. The liner notes are interesting as well.  Gahan was deep into drug addiction and no one in the band was really communicating.  Every note was apparently argued extensively and no one enjoyed making it.  Maybe U2 needs some chaos.

I got into Leonard Cohen in my 30's and he's become one of my top 5 artists.

Chris Isaak was my late 20's and he's damn good as well.

I got deep into Leonard in my mid-40’s. #winning

Absolutely.

I was a very moderate fan in the 80’s when I’m Your Man came out. But didn’t explore the back catalogue then.

I took the deep dive only in the mid-00’s.

Rush
Prince
Bruce Springsteen
Metallica
Madonna
The Cure

This. Hated LZ as a teen. Now I have all their albums. Still don't like the last two, but the first 6 are incredible.
