The greatest band on earth

And so it begins...

Chocolate Socialist quite rightly pointed out that I got the lyrics to The Smiths entry assways.

Apologies for that.

I had most of a bottle of wine in me.

Rottenhat contributed in a positive way.

The Fall

Roxy Music

And a vote for The Smiths from his wife.

So the voting list is as follows right now:

Himself's Picks

Led Zeppelin
Nirvana
BB King
Neil Young - based on Harvest
Jimi Hendrix
Theory of a Deadman

Kris' Picks

U2
The Doors
Coldplay
Stone Temple Pilots
The Smiths

Agreed Picks
The Cult
The Cure
The Who

Queenie's Picks
Radiohead
Low
My Bloody Valentine

For what it's worth, I think that the list is totally lacking Tom Waits and the Clash.

My picks would be:

The Clash
The Who
Tom Waits
Bob Dylan
and, I dunno, Ella Fitzgerald era Duke Ellington band just to make sure that everyone thinks I'm a music snob.

Then again Led Zed is pretty good too.
Cheers

Hmm...
This is an interesting one!! so I'm taking your "bands" thing literally and thus leaving out Stevie Wonder, Elvis Presley, Van, David Bowie etc etc..
so..

Led Zeppelin
The Kings of Leon
The Beatles
Fleetwood Mac
The Rolling Stones

That was hard... and I'm sure it will change in five mins....

The Clash? I must have missed the point where we moved to discussing who is the most over-rated band of all time.
