The one main thing that gives Zappa serious credibility is his association with Beefheart. Zappa did some really cool stuff and I respect him but Beefheart must be honored with the deepest kind of reverence reserved for a very select few musicians. If you don't vote for Beefheart in the poll you should feel embarrassed. The difference is that profound.

It's like when people try to say Stevie Ray Vaughn is better than Hendrix. There's nothing there for me to respect or consider.

Well, another one is people who think Metallica is better than Slayer.
I've met a lot of professional musicians with terrible taste. If you count music teachers as professionals I think I've only met one who knew **** about music at all and had any taste.

I'm sorry.:confused:And I dont mean to be argumentative just for the sake of arguing. But you have some of the most abstract theories Ive ever heard before. If your going to post your opinion, you need to be prepared to interpret and explain your position a little better after making such bold and arrogant statements.
I would like to hear some more of your insight and opinion concerning music, which is quite entertaining to say the least.
I like to think that I am personally open minded enough to admit when I am wrong, or by seeing the legitimacy of another opinion.
Please enlighten me with your vast knowledge concerning as to a "litmus test to judge a person's understanding of music"?
I can respect anyone's personal opinion, but just being simply arrogant is a "no go" with me.
I have no beef with you personally my friend, but I am inquisitive as to your view concerning personal preference to music and different artist.:)
After all..This is Musicbanter. Not Muzicforums.
