Interesting, but this list is incomplete. How about American Woman and No Time by the Guess Who? Mississippi Queen-Leslie West?

Lot of good choices. I Didn’t agree with the order in many cases. For example, as far as I’m concerned, Smoke on the Water is #1.

Lousy picks. The Doobie Brothers “Listen to the Music” is missing, beaten to death by some heavy, heavy acid rock - - where’s In-A=Gadda-DA-Vida?

Whoever compiled this list was hitting the meth big time.

No, the title is misleading. Nirvana? White Stripes? WTW by Aerosmith and Run-DMC? Top riff is SCOM by Guns N’ Posers??

55%/45% split between likes and dislikes. That saith “turkey” unto me.

I agree. There are so many I cannot list them all. This is subjective, an exercise in futility.

Not to mention KISS. Detroit Rock City. I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night, Dr. Love, etc. I heard they’re about to come out with a 40th anniversary CD.

NO, No, no!

Led Zep the beginning of “The Ocean” if you wanna pick them.

Beginning of The Stones “Can’t You Here Me Taking” best riff EVER!

PERIOD!

AC/DC should not be in the same video with Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix!

But thanks for posting - that was fun.

Agree, some deserve to be there most do not. You gotta be kidding, NO BOSTON, NO EAGLES, NO JOURNEY, and the list goes on. Motorhead??? Who gives a flyin f about motorhead. Eighty percent of the people have never heard of them. Besides, their music stinks. They put up a tough guy persona but those scrawny crack heads would get their asses kicked by the grade schooler. They’re a bunch of no talent posers. And the list STINKS, period.

I only agreed with half of them.

Those were the iconics like the Stones, Hendrix, Deep Purple, Clapton, etc.
[and why have the crappy RUN/DMC “edit” of “Walk This Way”?!? Bleah!]

I would’ve been mightily pissed if GNR’s Sweet Child O’ Mine hadn’t been on there.

[Slash Almighty]

However, where’s “School’s Out”, Billion Dollar Babies, BOC’s DFTR, L.A. Woman, White Wedding, Radar Love, Bat Out Of Hell, Aqualung, Locomotive Breath, Crazy Train, Mother and a hundred other “I can name that tune in 3 notes” stuff?

No Frigid Pink’s “House Of The Rising Sun”, even, FFS?

Meh.

I should stay off these threads.
