Too lazy to see what all that list consists of, but I disagree with anything super positive about the Beatles which has angered a lot of people. I don't hate them by any means, but don't care for their sound. Too happy (even their sad songs). Not enough bass, groove, smoothness, depth or production IMO. Sounds raw or live like a lot of Elvis' stuff probably because it was before a lot of technology. If I had my own list I would put Elvis probably in top 10 objectively bc I don't consider myself a fan of his but I recognize it IS / WAS good perhaps because he was accused of copying many unknown black artists in the day. In order to be objectively fair I would have to also include the Beatles bc I recognize hard work, creativity, and melodious talent there. A private list of mine would not include either, though.
