Drums: John Bonham. He is my favorite drummer but he is nowhere near the greatest of all time.

Vocalist: Paul McCartney.

Give me your list.
Steer away from the word 'garbage', especially when using it to describe the music of highly-esteemed musicians - it just riles people.

Heed my words, it'll save you buckets of grief.

I've listened to his 3 studio albums over 15-20 times combined. I wanted to like him but compared to other artists of his day he doesn't live up. He might of been revolutionary but that doesn't mean he was any good.

I actually agree with you, I never got the hype.

No offense, but... why is he overrated if he's your favorite. I'd agree that he's talented, albeit overrated. But it's a weird position to take...

I'd like to add a big one:

Drums: David Grohl

...why?

Al Pacino = God

He's my favorite but some people put him above Neil Peart or Ginger Baker. I can't agree with that.

isn't there already a thread on this topic?

The Beatles are overrated - they were good, but not awesome. People think they're Gods or something....
