View Full Version : SETTLE A DEBATE
The Chairman
11-30-2002, 02:11 PM
OK - My friends and I have been debating this for as long as we know each other:
Question:
Four Greatest British Rock Bands; ranked in as OBJECTIVE order as you can attempt (overall quality, influence, staying power, opus of work, musicianship, etc.)
The catch:
You have to pick from these four bands (because these are the one's that invariably make the top four among us.)
Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, The Who.
So that eliminates Pink Floyd, Oasis, The Kinks, Spice Girls, etc. SORRY.
What I'm trying to establish here is that my ranking is more consistent with "most people out there."
MY OBJECTIVE LIST:
1) The Beatles
2) The Rolling Stones
3) Led Zeppelin
4) The Who
MY PERSONAL LIST: (THE ONE'S I ACTUALLY LIKE LISTENING TO THE MOST, IN ORDER)
1) LED ZEPPELIN
2) THE ROLLING STONES
3) THE WHO
4) THE BEATLES
On your SUBJECTIVE list, you can pick any band (even one's not mentioned above) but you have to stick to the four above mentioned bands for the first ranking.
And you can add an HONORABLE MENTION LIST, like mine below:
HONORABLE MENTION:
1) THE CLASH
2) THE JAM
3) RADIOHEAD
4) THE STONE ROSES
5) THE SEX PISTOLS
Results will be posted.
