Lew Bundles Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Lot of room for dispute... https://articles.parenting101.com/l101/greatest-rock-bands-of-all-time/?utm_source=fb&utm_campaign=T_FB_P101LT_US_rockbands_DC_UV07CC27BD300OP_v2_S24_2405_DE_1865_A_23847958095390031&utm_content=feed&utm_medium=T_FB_P101LT_US_rockbands_DC_UV07CC27BD300OP_v2_S24_2405&fbclid=IwAR0bCALpckqVYm2h7fHcXY5uI6bvSuWl9ARUAsneTFtyBFRCsLtPCAUataA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 What did they do, pick names out of a hat? The number of acts ahead of The Who is staggering... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 As much as I appreciate an enticing listicle article, this is the type that gives 'em a bad name. Tom Petty at No. 39 and Elton John at No. 23... but Black Sabbath at No. 9 and Journey at No. 6? And Bruce Springsteen nowhere in sight? Sometimes, the goal is to rile people up more than to give a sensible and defensible list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Benfer Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I don't get upset by lists anymore. All they do is reflect the authors tastes. I'm sure lots of people out there would laugh at my top 100 list too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie Mississippi Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I'm pretty sure most, if not all of us here would have Raspberries represented somewhere on this list... and likely not at #40... (they did, after all, influence several of those who DID make this particular list... or so I have been led to believe... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shaft Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 For Whatever It's Worth (and, believe me, it's not) lists like this cause me to post my own "Top 10". However, to make it interesting here are my all time Top 10 American Rock & Roll Bands: 1. Cheap Trick & The Ramones (tie) (after these two, the remaining eight fluctuate - the biggest word I've used all day - and are in no particular order here) - The Replacements - The J. Geils Band - Raspberries - Van Halen - Kiss - Bruce Springsteen & The E. Street Band - Alice Cooper - The Pretenders (due to my obsessive crush on Chrissie Hynde) Now, if one wishes to add non-American Rock & Roll Bands to my all time fave Rock & Roll Bands you could include: - The Rolling Stones - Hanoi Rocks - Manic Street Preachers - Thin Lizzy - Motorhead As one would expect, mileage may vary depending on the vehicle and the driver so, please, respect the road..... (All of the above is the result of finding a few Great Lakes Christmas Ales in the 'fridge tonight and having them for dinner.....) :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
