row_33 Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 John Lennon and Jerry Garcia Keith Richards on backup the rest can GTFO 1
T&C Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 No Annie Haslam?!! This list sucks just like Rolling Stone.
row_33 Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 it's Rolling Stone, give the Moody Blues 1/5 and Sean Lennon 5/5 on all their albums... 1
DC Tom Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 Steve Perry at #76? That's ridiculously low, and I don't even like Steve Perry. And Paul Rodgers over Roger Daltrey is just obscene. Was this article written by a deaf person? 2

GoBills808 Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 You can't put Dylan in the top 10 for authenticity's sake and then include Janis Joplin anywhere on that list imo
snafu Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 This list is so weird it is hard to begin. I guess I’ll just say this is highly subjective, and I disagree with their results.

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 I'm a huge fan of Elton John. Paid an obscene amount of money to sit in the nosebleeds. Went to the Rocketman movie two weeks before it came out. I've even argued that he's a better songwriter than any of the Beatles. That said, it's his piano playing, songwriting, and showmanship that helped launch him to fame. His voice isn't terrible, but by his own admission is mediocre at best.

Mike in Horseheads Posted October 21, 2019 Author Posted October 21, 2019 I do want to say on Twitter there was a complete chart so you didn't have to have roll through that whole thing. Sorry
T&C Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 I was outside grilling burgers and sausage etc. and had Katy Lied on youtube. How Fagen didn't make this "list" is beyond me... not so much now but back in the heyday he had a fantastic voice, Very versatile.
Rob's House Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 After checking out the top 10 I think they were just going for woke points. 1
Gray Beard Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 I don’t know where to begin with my disagreements. Too many. But a fun thought exercise. 3
RaoulDuke79 Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 I knew there was a problem when I got through the first 2 columns without seeing Axl Rose.
