... and I don't think neither of them can hold the candle to the 60s greats like The Beatles and the Stones... and I don't think they couldn't hold a candle to 50s greats like Les Paul & Mary Ford, and Big Joe Turner.

I always thought that 10 was Pearl Jam's greatest hits cause like I don't know much about their stuff. I would like Oasis a lot more if it wasn't for certain things about the music. I thought the songwriting was decent (& a few songs are epic) but something about their music get repetitive.

Its not that I don't like Blur. I just believe that Oasis is for sure worth a listen, more so than blur.

I, on the other hand, would rather listen to Pearl Jam over Oasis though. Probably my fault for overplaying Whats the Story Morning Glory and Definitely Maybe.

Maybe Floyd, but Zeppelin? I am going to have to disagree on that statement.

I dig me some Zeppelin tunes, but they were way too self-indulgent with their boring folk experiments, and it made their albums pretty hit-or-miss.

Yeah I am taking back the "maybe" part of my comment earlier. Oasis definitely gets up there but is not going to be touching Floyd or Zepplin. I accept that mistake I made. May our lord and savior Robert Plant forgive me.

Baby boomers are child molesters and a guitar solo does not make a ****ty song into a classic.

I'll blame Rolling Stone, but baby boomers still touch children (see Chula for evidence).

And I don't know how Oasis got called alternative. I guess if Cheap Trick came out in the early nineties people would have called them alt too.
