Fine work

Seems a decent list and can’t argue with many names (apart from the bloody Who but that’s personal taste)

Fully agreed on The Who

In my own personal top 10, only 4 made it to the latest (to date) top 10

So over-rated

Only 1 of mine made top 10 but I can understand why all the others are up there and popular

Adam, I just looked at your 10 ..... we have 0 in common

[colin_p]

Nine out of my ten made list, which is nice.

The funny thing is almost all of the bands listed by everyone seldom get or got any airplay (at the time they were current, some still are of course) and yet they are the most popular amongst a bunch of middle aged car drivers.

All I can say is god gave rock n roll to you and thank god for Planet Rock!

Hmm...

Still had to check, though. And it's "ie", not "ee". Er, apparently.

[vixen1700]

The Who above The Stones?

Here’s an idea - don’t quote the whole list again when replying?
