If you dont understand that Bon Scott era AC/DC doesn't stomp half that list, again its not a me problem. Highway to Hell probably outsold most of that list.

Hell Back In Black with Brian Johnson released in 1980 out sells most of that list combined.

Yo Ubeja, why no Blind Faith?

I was using bands that were big around the time The Beatles were, groups like AC/DC, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Guns N' Roses came later, I assumed that was obvious.

Who does The Beatles vs Soundgarden?

If talking....

Lonnie Johnson
Leroy Carr
Blind Blake
Bessie Smith
Ma Rainey
Blind Willie McTell

....I'm obviously talking old pre 1930 blues, so guys like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker just don't belong since they came after 1940.


If talking.....

Johnny Burnett
Carl Perkins
Ersel Hickey
Charley Feathers
Elvis
Jerry Lee Lewis
Gene Vincent

.......it's rockabilly, so....Frank Sinatra?

You dumb ****. You have Billy Idol and Billy Joel on your original list who are definitely associated and were most popular around the time AC/DC was cranking out hits than they were during the Beatles time. Billy Idols’ debut album didn’t come out until 1982.

Also, you reeruned troglodyte, if you are going to make a thread asking people to vote, add a goddamn poll so they can actually vote. The mods need to kick your sorry ass out of here. You provide nothing but stupidity and obscure facts about track and field that nobody gives two shits about

OK, here's all you really need to know:
Rock band - Stones followed closely by Bruce and the E Streeters.
King - Elvis (duh) and Princess - Linda Ronstadt.
Godparents of Soul - James Brown and Aretha Franklin.
Early influences - Little Richard and Carl Perkins.
Invading force - The Beatles. You couldn't dance to much after Revolver and what good is rock if you can't dance to it..
Best to smoke a joint while listening to - Hendrix and Joplin. Honorable mention - Fleetwood Mac.
I could name a lot of other groups, but it's too early in the morning.

[Marcellus]

Posting a BOTB on CP without adding AC/DC is like having a coolest car ever poll and not including the Camaro.

[SuperBowl4]

LIMP BIZKIT wins! Was there ever any doubt? "o yea, this is what I'm telling you - there's ONLY ONE KING on this hill it sure is hell ain't you!" - LB is rock'n the set!

Interesting list and I enjoy stuff like this. Including Vanilla Fudge opens up the doors to Love and Moby Grape for me. I haven't heard much Grape personally but they seem to have influenced a lot of musicians.

Honorable mention for Fleetwood Mac and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers? I love Peter Green and there was even a tribute concert a few days ago! Gilmour, Hammett, and Townshend played.

That bracket is so stupid that it makes my head hurt
