>> Sorry, LZ is a garage band next to the likes of Hendrix.
Considering the era and genre, who topped your list?
R&B? Depends.
For white bands, it would have to be Stones.
BTW, I don’t know how your song list is R&B.
Gallows Poll, for example, is actually an old English folksong. Others have covered it, for example Steeleye Span - “The Prickly Bush”.
