Surprised to see Dylan at #6... I know this is only counting the criteria within this particular decade, but isn't he still valid for top 3-4? Then again, i don't even know if this list is being edited at all...

Sampson updated this list just before this thread was posted, and in the early part of the thread there was some discussion about the placements of The Supremes, The Stones, and Dylan.

Frank Sinatra should be included in the top 10.

But he's in no way shape or form a rock artist.

He's kind of shaped like one.

Yeah. I guess if you squint.

Have to agree with Hendrix here. I still dont think The Stones and The Supremes should be above Dylan.

Yeah Bob Dylan should be ahead of The Rolling Stones. I don't know The Supremes well enough to say anything about that though.

Frank Sinatra should be on a list of greatest traditional pop artists, not a list of rock artists.

Aside from The Beatles, I dont think any other artist really personified the decade like Dylan.

^ Agree with that. At the least, Dylan could move above the Stones.

I've argued that for a while. I like the Stones more, but think Dylan is greater--especially in the '60s.

Without Exile and Sticky Fingers, I don't think its much of a contest.

Apparently you did not live through the decade.
