Another list to agonize over.

Here it goes:

Although, the writer of this article does at least explain his choices with adequate intelligence, I do take exception to his 'order' of things', such as his elitist insistance that acts like The Ramones and The Velvet Underground be ranked so high, even ranking them higher than Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd in importance. Whatever. I can understand how a band like the Ramones would inspire a lot of poorly talented musicians, writers and singers to think they could start a band, but I doubt the musical landscape would look that much different without them. Zep and Floyd can make claim to a longer lasting legacy than The Ramones. Velvet Underground I can see as being influential, since they forshadowed glam rock and punk rock, but The Ramones were Eddy And The Cruisers on speed, that's all.





Yeah...that's the ticket...
