I love Pink Floyd, but I think you might be overestimating their
importance in the greater scheme of things. The Who were extremely
instrumental in the British Invasion. They were a clear forerunner as
far as "popwer rock" bands go. Personally, I think the Stones have a
more consistent body of work, but I'll put the Who's top 10 in a list
with anyone.

This website is full of crap lists. I'm a drummer myself so I go see
what they the Editor thinks on his drumming lists. Now if he thinkgs
Keith Moon is the second greates Rock drummer, he's not really worth
listening to, although he did make up for that by not even including him
in the 100 most skilled drummers. And Moby Dick as greatest studio rock
drum performance? Please, he plays a reasonable drum solo in it but
Palmers in Tarkus (no.8) is far better. And given that a drum solo
wasnt't the requirement there are plenty of better studio performances.
That Ringo Starr has a place in both "greatest studio drum performance"
and "greatest rock drummer" list is just insulting!
Raja
Greatness should not based on importance. If that was the case Sex
Pistols should be ranked in top 10. They were extremely important for
punk which went on to create post punk, new wave, alt rock and
speed/thrash metsl. One could make a case of Sex Pistols > Who/Pink
Floyd in terms of importance.
Greatness should be based on the quality of albums put out by the band,
the overall consistency of the work and the amount of respect the band
has gotten by fans, critics and fellow musiciana.

If that was true, Marillion should be in the list (carefully avoiding to say
on which position). For "Script", "Misplaced Childhood", "Clutching At
Straws", "Brave" and for causing a revival of progressive rock in the early
eighties. The amount of "respect" a band or artist gets, is highly
influenced by the amount of hype created by the music-industry.
These lists are bullshit.

If Marillion was truly respected, then Marillion would show up in top
10 of prog list. It doesnt. Whatever they did they could not match the

It isn't an exact science, but possibly because they invented the Rock
Opera; because John Entwistle was the first Bass guitarist to play with
all four fingers; because their performing style influenced heavy rock;
because their socially conscious lyrics influenced punk rock and the
new wave?

You're right about greatness but surely the thrust of this list is
about influence.
The Sex Pistols don't belong on the list at all because they stole the
Ramones clothes. Have you seen the Great Rock and Roll Swindle? Its a
work of fiction but its a pretty good allegory of what they did (that
doesn't mean I don't like the Sex Pistols).
The Terminator
I would say most inflencial bands list should be very different than
greatest bands list. Micheal Jackson, Emenim, Madonna, Celine Dion are
extremely influencial much more than Pink Floyd. But they are not
greater rock artist than Pink Floyd.
The Terminator
The Who did not invent Rock Opera. It was done by Traffic. There are
few bassists in rock who play like Entwistle anyway.
And again, how has influence got to do anything with greatness. Eminem
is so influencial, how come he is not No.1 in rock and roll lists?

Doesnt matter, influence doesnt mean shit when you are talking about
greatness. Else bands like the Ramones and Nirvana will be considered
greater than the Doors. The Who were very influencial but that doesnt
make them a great band. Its finally the music that matters.

If you say someone invents a genre, it DOES mean shit. Hence my question.

It's nothing but a list put together with the personal biases of those
in charge -- and with the power -- to get shite like this published in
some form. Just like Raja doesn't want to believe that ANY band --
regardless of musical or social influence -- is better than Zep or
Floyd, this editor either hasn't heard of more accomplished drummers,
or he wants to set his own agenda. Just because you're an editor,
doesn't mean you have taste. Just ink.

Okay, here's a top 10 prog list for ya:
1. Marillion
2. Marillion
3. Marillion
4. Marillion
5. Marillion
6. Marillion
7. Marillion
8. Marillion
9. Marillion
10. Marillion
See, now they are on a top 10 prog list. And by the way, I don't even
know one song by Marillion, which just proves how meaningless these
lists are.

I'm no expert on the matter by any means, but Keith Moon was close to
his equal by most accounts, and Ginger Baker may exceed him in skill and
timing.

These should all be listed in my opinion:
Blue Cheer
Police
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Kraftwerk
Can
As for Marillion, a few people have tried to get me to like them, but
they're just not my thing. I even went to see Fish live. I'm not really
sure why I'm not a fan, as I like early Genesis and Yes. Not different
enough I think - similar bases already covered in more extreme ways by
others. Just personal opinion of course.

"All right. Welcome back to the show. And now, I choose to recite a list.
Ahem.
"tetherball."
"Olympic race."
"sparkling."
"Tim Duncan."
"Wisconsin."
"a book of matches."
"next week."
"a lot of money."
"witch's brew." "

"a leatherette-jacketed Luger" "electric drill press covered in vaseline
and cotton swabs" and "electronic tie rack from Sharper Image."
