You're right, it was clearly regarded the whole world, both could be in the top 10. I'm trying to think what names could make a top 20. Prince can also be considered. If we do a top 20 of each criteria, would be easier to rearrange the top of the list. Well, it's just a suggestion.



Here's what we voted as the top 20 in the "Rank The Hall Of Famers" thread, where we are now voting on #71 to #75.


MOST DESERVING HALL OF FAMERS

1 - Beatles
2 - Elvis Presley
3 - Chuck Berry
4 - Little Richard
5 - James Brown and the Famous Flames
6 - Bob Dylan
7 - Ray Charles
8 - Rolling Stones
9 - Beach Boys
10 - Aretha Franklin
11 - Stevie Wonder
12 - Bo Diddley
13 - Fats Domino
14 - The Who
15 - Buddy Holly and the Crickets
16 - Michael Jackson
17 - Sam Cooke
18 - Marvin Gaye
19 - Temptations
20 - Led Zeppelin

Impressive high position of Little Richard! Like Bo Diddley and Holly. Nice to see them being recognized.

The website Future Rock Legends made a "pyramid" of Hall of Fame - http://www.futurerocklegends.com/Images ... yramid.jpg - and there are some absurd, in my opinion.
As the highest position of John Lennon's solo career, and the absence of Jackson and Aretha at the top, and Madonna only in the third level.

I just don't understand how The Who is ahead of Zeppelin.

Popularity: Led Zeppelin
Influence: Led Zeppelin
Musical Impact: Led Zeppelin
Cultural Impact: Led Zeppelin

Does anyone disagree? (except for ClashWho)

The usual overrating of Led Zeppelin. But at least The Who is in the top tier, so I can avoid having a conniption fit today.

Well, we used to have a thread for this, for the express purpose of keeping it out of this thread.
