Although the best has to be The Smiths. Johnny Marr is ridiculously good.
Johnny Marr alone would qualify The Smiths as the best (musically) IMO.

Buzz****s
Stone Roses
New Order
Happy Mondays
Elbow
^ As a best list, this fails.
For influence, I'd say you've got the top 4 in the right order...more or less.
The exception would have to be a swap of places. Smiths for Buzzcocks.
