They forgot Phil Collins

Pompous overblown ass with simplistic crap that is only suitable for garbage Disney movies now.

And for anyone that disagrees, I have three words:

SU Su Sudio

Only one of the best rock drummers, ever.

Two words: Paper Late.

But, the beginning of Hold On with the drum riff is good, the rest crap.

Land of Illusion? Mega crap.

Not a big fan of his pop stuff as it was mediocre pop music. However Phil Collins was great as part of earlier Genesis, a highly original creative band. Not everyone’s cup of tea but they created their own artistic space and influenced many bands.

When Peter Gabriel left they supposedly auditioned 1,000 vocalists (exaggeration I’m sure but that was the story) and they ended up using Phil who sounded close to Peter without the crazy costumes. not a bad drummer and writer either. Just didn’t connect with his solo pop stuff

Phil Collins was a damn fine Speedway racer and I found him very down to earth. Seemed to be a good guy when I met him.

OOPS! Wrong Phil Collins.

I like some of Phil Collins earlier material - when he wasn't singing, but only playing drums (Genesis, Brand X).

“They forgot Phil Collins”

LOL! Now that guy IS over rated, and my hubby hates him with a passionate passion.

I actually kind of like all the guys on this list.

“THe Wall” I’m not crazy about, but Dark Side of the Moon is a classic album for all time.

Freepers should check out Luther Right and the Wrongs blue grass version of the wall,it’s really something and in some distinct ways better than the original.

LOVE THE DOORS, LOVE MARLEY.

Springsteen’s first couple of albums are also classics, but he quickly devolved into a hack. Sad, but to me it doesn’t detract from his first great stuff.

Oh, and I think blame for “ebony & ivory” rests equally with Paul McCartney.

And as I said to hubby once in the middle of a great donnybroork, I’ll put ANY song Ringo Starr did on his own against McCartney’s ENTIRE post-beatles career.

Venus & Mars are alright tonight - sheesh! Talk about over-rated!
