I'd have to say Aerosmith, for good tunes, longevity, and still being relavent.

18. Not the same, but young Derek Trucks sure
plays a mean guitar. I find his solos much more difficult than anything Dicky Betts ever did.

4. I think Chevy Chase was their drummer before they were
big. I still gotta say Aerosmith for just name recognition alone.

5. The Ramones. If you can't rock in 2 mintes or less, why try?

9. Jimi's not a band dude, neither is Bruce, Paul Simon, or
Neil Diamond( I can't believe I just admitted I am a Neil Diamond fan).

26. Their music is American...
...their musical roots were the deep south. "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down", "The Weight", and "Rag Mama Rag". Nothing "Canadian" about any of those songs.
