Black Sabbath = Neil Young = Jimi Hendrix > The Beatles > Rush > Alice Cooper > Jethro Tull > Led Zeppelin >>>>>>>>Aerosmith[views:5447][posts:56]_____________________________ [Dec 17,2007 4:03pm - ZJD ""] Someone recently told me that Led Zeppelin was the best rock and roll band ever and I thought that was wrong. Someone else told me the same thing about Aerosmith and fuck that. |

| _________________________________________ [Dec 17,2007 4:07pm - theloadsweblow ""] Aerosmith is the shit. Self-titled through Rocks fucking dominate. Permanent Vacation, Pump and Get a Grip are also sick but really different in style. |
| _________________________________________ [Dec 17,2007 4:08pm - theloadsweblow ""] I would take them over Tull, Led Zep, Alic Cooper, Rush, or Neil Young anyday. Probably even over Sabbath. Beatles and Jimi are in a league of their own though. |

Yup, Zeppelin was an evocation of the subconscious, same with Pink Floyd... Today's music is a reflection of the conscious (meaning it has no depth)... Turn on the tv and you will see a pack of raped ape in heat blacks flashing gold chains and bragging about how much money they have... This is regarded as "art" by today's (sub)standard... |

On the Beach, Zuma, Tonight's the Night, and Rust Never Sleeps are my favorites and i like them more than any Beatles albums. I also think Forever Changes and Odysee and Oracle are better than Sgt. Peppers so eat my ass stuff or something. |

| _____________________________ [Dec 17,2007 8:02pm - SW ""] robert johnson started it all Robert Johnson, born Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 – August 16, 1938) is among the most famous Delta blues musicians. His landmark recordings from 1936–1937 display a remarkable combination of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that have influenced generations of musicians. Johnson's shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend. Considered by some to be the "Grandfather of Rock-and-Roll", his vocal phrasing, original songs, and guitar style influenced a range of musicians, including Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, Johnny Winter, Jimi Hendrix, The Allman Brothers Band, The Rolling Stones, Paul Butterfield, The White Stripes, The Black Keys, Peter Gabriel, Neil Young, Warren Zevon, Red Hot Chili Peppers , and Eric Clapton , who called Johnson "the most important blues musician who ever lived".[1] He was also ranked fifth in Rolling Stone's list of 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.[2] He is an inductee of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

| _____________________________ [Dec 18,2007 3:47pm - ZJD ""] Motorhead doesn't belong in this equation because they aren't classic in the same way as all these bands. I was going to include the Misfits in it and took them out of this reason. Also, The Rolling Stones are more overrated than the Beatles. |

| _______________________________ [Dec 18,2007 4:06pm - aril ""] King Crimson Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd Amon Duul II (check them out if you can) Deep Purple Moody Blues Emerson Lake and Palmer The Beatles +many more Are all better than Aerosmith. Although different in styles, I think it's safe to say that Aerosmith and the Stones are way overrated. Personally, I think Zeppelin and King Crimson belong on metal-archives, but that's just me. I don't understand why Rush is on there while KC is not. In the Court of the Crimson King is to me, one of the first metal albums. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 18,2007 4:26pm - dreadkill ""] i like your list, especially putting amon duul II and ELP in there. i personally don't consider rush, zeppelin, or king crimson metal, but i won't deny their influence on it. when i was a kid aerosmith was my favorite band, but like sinistas said, after draw the line, they fell off the map. sure, there were some good songs after it, but never any solid albums. if aerosmith broke up after draw the line, they'd have a much better reputation and much less money in their bank accounts. what would have happened to zeppelin's reputation if bonham hadn't died and they continued on? if their music declined, it probably wouldn't fall as hard as aerosmith's did, but who knows. i think part of the legend with zeppelin and the beatles is the fact that they had pretty short careers. it's hard to sustain greatness over a long period of time, that's why i consider rush to be the best band ever, and to a lesser extent, motorhead. motorhead has sustained greatness over a long period of time, but done it with a tried and true approach that hasn't changed, kind of like ac/dc, and the songwriting remains strong more than 30 years after they started. |
