In reply to the discussion: Best musical group of all time? [View all]Amishman
(5,540 posts)80. nah, they were successful through image and marketing, not musical ability
Maybe its because they broke up over a decade before I was born, but I listening to them I can't understand how they were ever successful.
Of that era I wouldn't rank them above The Beach Boys, who do not merit mention in the best band conversation themselves.
My contenders would be Rolling Stones, Rush, Queen, Pink Floyd, The Who, and possibly Tool

I always loved them...I still love Iris which even though it was overplayed, I still like it.
