Robert Johnson | DeRank™: 3,24

Through Robert Johnson, the devil himself sowed the wicked seed of rock'n'roll in the womb of the blues. Through Robert Johnson, he reinvented the personification of the cursed artist. Through Robert Johnson, he began to demand respect for the infamous clauses of his contracts, and to steadfastly follow in the footsteps of all those who will play the blues as their last hope for redemption. Indispensable. more

A great band that I had the chance to follow, with a good dose of luck, at an anonymous concert in Rome. The great driving force, Ian Anderson, is an almost abstract entity in the world of rock, due to his colorful multi-facetedness. Too bad for the lack of continuity over the years. more

Tom Petty | DeRank™: 4,70

American artist hailing from Gainesville, Tom Petty's career began in 1976, supported by the band "The Heartbreakers." His rock is straightforward and solid, with southern and country nuances. Tom Petty is a multi-instrumentalist: he plays guitar, mandolin, harmonica, and sings, as well as being the author of almost all his songs, many of which have become true American icons. He has collaborated with numerous artists, including: George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, Johnny Cash, Roger McGuinn. more

Take a revolutionary way of playing the flute from a charismatic leader, who, in addition to being a true poet in his lyrics, has a wonderful voice and writes almost all the pieces; add to that a compositional originality that ranks among the few, an excellent loyal and long-standing guitarist, who has witnessed the succession of formations under the banner of top-notch musicians: this is the prototype of the perfect band, and it’s called Jethro Tull. more

Lynyrd Skynyrd | DeRank™: 0,62

Probably the greatest American rock band of the '70s. The first two albums are scandalously beautiful. Then a couple of good albums, but not excellent; followed by a phenomenal double live album and a return to the studio to create the last great record, Street Survivors. The plane crash stopped them at the peak of a short but intense career. Free Bird, Simple Man, Tuesday's Gone, That Smell, Call Me The Breeze, I Need You, Sweet Home Alabama, I Never Dreamed.... a repertoire to envy anyone. more

Once he was a remarkable character, able to create great albums, both in the period from "Ma Cosa Vuoi Che Sia Una Canzone" to "Bollicine" and in the period from "Cosa Succede In Città" to "Liberi...Liberi." But after the live album "Fronte Del Palco," his decline began. A decline that continues to this day. A living Mirabilandia that I don't want to visit, a wandering zombie that can disappear at any moment. I will only remember the early albums. more

You can’t build an entire career on two plin plin of chtarra with Brian Eno’s delay and the screams of that tall Zorro, a can of the singer. And then their biblical visions of the series that what am I doing Lord help me-. A band of chubby guys for faux-hippie yuppies. RATING: keep these roughnecks in Ireland!!!! more

Perhaps the greatest merit of Tool is that they make you realize how inferior Dream Theater are. Here, progressive music is not based on Genesis, but on its own terms, far from clear and "expository"; rather, it is dark, frustrated, and controversial. Here, it is man who is at the center of the pieces, not the instrument, so the music can only be damnably more complicated and multifaceted. Aenima and Lateralus, respectively the muscles and the brain, are albums to be listened to, and to be watched in the music videos. more

I have always hated him. Always seen as an example not to follow. After two and a half decades, thanks to discovering that he loved De André and "La buona novella," I thought about reevaluating him. He has improved a lot, but for me, he still remains quite mediocre. more

In the years when kids wondered what the lyrics of Stairway to Heaven were hiding, what the prism of Dark Side Of The Moon represented, in the years when many thought that Black Sabbath had come straight from hell and that the Hermit with his Four Symbols might lead us to Paradise, in those same years there was a band that was only focused on playing and was traveling the world promoting a piece that talked about a fucking fire in a casino. more

They create too much dependence. Not because one necessarily needs to detox, I don’t see the reason for that, but it’s so annoying. After them everything seems so obvious, resentful. more
