Pink Floyd
huge. But if they had lived in America without the hyper-technological English studios, without their legendary overdubs that have covered their backsides multiple times, maybe we would be talking about something else or maybe they would have taken a different musical path.....who knows..... more
The Beach Boys
group unjustly labeled as Surf (real surf has no vocals) assemblers of styles and sounds taken a bit from here and a bit from there, ridiculous in their imitation of the English psychedelic scene that was so popular at the time. more
Jefferson Airplane
overrated group from the California west coast. great artists but if Grace hadn't brought those two magical pieces she inherited from the other group she came from, maybe we’d be talking about a legend. more
Nick Mason
an excellent drummer but not a virtuoso, better than Phil Collins, but sometimes the incapacity and simplicity of execution have a better effect more
David Gilmour
not a virtuoso of the instrument, timid in the approach to the instrument, but his technical incapacity, fervent imagination, and Barrett's dictates have synergistically created his splendid sound. more
Led Zeppelin
great in blues rock and also in folk, but if they hadn't had the driving force of the Yardbirds, if they hadn't copied the intro of stairway to heaven and various things, maybe we would be talking about good followers but not about a legendary band. more
Bob Marley & The Wailers
immense artist who has internationalized Reggae as a whole. But let's not forget that underworld of like-minded musicians who coexisted in the Jamaican scene, unjustly forgotten and terribly exploited by overseas record labels. more
Caducity
Interesting death metal with epic tones. more
Oblivians
The feeling of having your ears filled with muddy sludge that seeps deep into your brain, then hardens into something rough and jagged, completely dulling you. more
Julian Cope
great writer and hound of extinct music scenes, after the anonymous experience as a musician that did not bring him fame, he threw himself into writing about extinct and buried music scenes that are still marketable. more
Iggy Pop
Thank you Iggy, you are now the Rock. Bold and brilliant front-man. IMMENSE. more
David Bowie
Here comes another one, who has always followed the trends of the moment, a great illusionist and quick transformist, he knew how to choose his collaborators well and thanks more to them than to himself, he became famous. more
Melvins
seminal artists from the 80s onwards. a bridge between the old/new ways of making metal and punk, after them, everything becomes post. more
Joy Division
epic transformers of all those depressed and melancholic mental sensations, a perfect blend of music and cerebral feelings, immense more
Devendra Banhart
here's another one, like Beck, a fake-alternative (forgive me this description), it's not enough to draw from the good music of the 70s to be a good artist. I don't trust him. more
Tom Waits
A Hero, a Legend, the Last One Standing, the Quintessence of the Seventh Art, too bad he is at the mercy of vices and alcohol, but perhaps it is precisely the vices that have made him even greater. more
Tony Banks
Shy and reserved, he is not a showman like Emerson, but his brilliant ideas have turned their music into legend. more
Can -The Lost Tapes
A chest brimming with lost jewels more
Gentle Giant
brilliant and virtuous artists, if one has to find a flaw, it’s their sense of measure; sometimes they want to overdo it and they succeed, but it compromises their spontaneity. more
Beck
a mediocre artist who follows the trends of the moment adds a bit of vintage style, which is always cool, and acts like they're alternative. It doesn't seem right to me. more
