2. the doors
television,van halen,brian eno,u2,daniel lanois, johnny cash, crosby stills and nash(but not young), xtc, pink floyd, elvis presley, the jam, morrisey, clapton,x, arcade fire,exploited, the weakerthans, Dr.Dre(a terrible rapper, the only reason the chronic is enjoyable is because of snoop dogg, and the soul/funk samples he had other people lift and repackage, in fact he serves more of an executive producer role in that he doesn't do jack)

I read someone mention hawkwind, a terribly underated band.
Of those, I only agree with you on Elvis, U2 (but here they're underrated IMO), Arcade Fire and Morrissey. But not the rest.

CSN are underrated if anything.

I only listen to you talk when I want to hear Emo performed acapella.
