Frank Zappa: Yes. He's a staple when it comes to the avante-garde side of music and has a string of classic albums to his name.
The Clash:
Yes. One of the most important and deservedly popular bands from the first wave of British punk.
Bob Dylan:
Yes. Another one of music's most influential figures and has the classic albums to back him up.
Pink Floyd:
Yes. Dogs - 'nuff said.
Big Black:
I like what I've heard, but that's not really a lot of their stuff, so I'm afraid I'll have to abstain.
Tom Waits:
Yes. One of the most unique, prolific, charismatic and consistent people in music.
The Smiths:
Yes. I wouldn't call them one of my favourites, but there's no doubt they belong in the Hall Of Fame.
Chuck Berry:
I'll abstain from this one as well. As influential as he was, I simply don't listen to his music often enough.
