Well, we are talking personal tastes so perhaps no wrong answer BUT Bob Seger has gifts from a lustrous musical soul. That cannot be rated too highly given its scarcity. In my humble opinion, of course.

“Bob Seger and Billy Joel.”

Can’t agree with you there. If someone were to say they were in the top 10 of all time, that might be a stretch. But I don think they are viewed that way.

Billy Joel was at 51 on the VH1 list and Bob Seger didn’t make it all. Joel’s ranking seems about right - he had a bit wider range of styles and wrote more songs than Seger. Seger probably should have cracked the top 100 - his music still sounds good 30-40 years later and he had a lot of good music.

I personnally prefer Seger, but see Billy Joel as a more accomplished artist.

Yes, good ol’ “Bring-me-down-Bob”...
For anyone who grew up in the early/mid Seventies within earshot of WRIF in Detroit, every third song was a Bob Seger song.
