wow. indeed a blast from the past. i would agree with CC about Tri-X being the best film. loved it when i was shooting b/w. one film i've always liked, but found very difficult was Tech-Pan. almost no grain, but it's forgiveness for under/over exposure was dire. but when it worked....wow.
but with the original question, i think ilford hp5 is my preference. i liked the grain more than Fuji and I always trusted Ilford for b/w. used Fuji for slides. used Kodak for colour negs.
