Led Zeppelin are overated-some good tracks but they are a souped up blues bands (listen to Cream/Hendrix/Blind Faith instead)
Metallica have'nt made a good album since Master Of Puppets.
The Rollling Stones despite their longevity and some admittedly great tracks have not changed in forty years of making music. You only really need a greatest hits and your'e away.
Syd barrett may have started Pink Floyd but GNOME and BIKE are ****ing awful tracks (although LUCIFER SAM is brilliant).
Drum solos should be banned from every live album-I don't care how good you are-it's boring!
Stevie Ray Vaughans version of LITTLE WING is better than HENDRIX'S.
Bob dylan may have been a great lyricist but apart from HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED his output does'nt do anything for me.
TALK TALK should be heralded as one of Britains best bands ever. A band that goes from synthesised 80's pop to some of the most incredible jazz tinged proto post rock (not a good description I know) gets my vote.
Sgt Peppers is overated, so is DARK SIDE OF THE MOON and RUMOURS and HOTEL CALIFORNIA.
Plenty more coming!
