I think Zappa was a musical genious but I just don't think he matches the stature of Bowie's music.

Maybe we should have The Beatles, The Stones, Led Zep, Pink Floyd and Dylan meet in a poll and have the winner face Bowie.

that might be interesting except the beatles would win.

You underestimate this forum's amount of Beatle haters and Pink Floyd lovers. I think it would be a close race between PF and David Bowie with PF coming out on top.

absolutely no way!
I have got to see that.

There have been a few complaints at too many polls, but if everyone wants me to run that I would do it.

I think it would work, maybe do it in a like a week or something. So everyone isn't thinking about this when it comes around again.

I'd go Bowie over Zep and the Stones for sure.

I meant for that to be about the modern music poll

That would be too broad I think, you would probably have to do one for each genre, or at least have a bracket for each.

Frank Zappa	16	33.33%
David Bowie	32	66.67%
