    In this ranking, between classic and modern, I really relate to it;D I only saw your De-birthday today: but you’re really young(:-*), I would say Jurello.

    Well, it really feels like a mixed bag, but it's not bad. After all, the word "rock" practically refers to a very heterogeneous universe.

    King Crimson at number 41!.. Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Robert Wyatt??

    Does Leonard Cohen strike you as rock? Let’s be serious.

    And the Eagles, the Beach Boys, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan, Dire Straits, Simon & Garfunkel, do you call them rock?... It seems to me that this ranking brings together a bit of all genres of "modern" music... R&B, R&R, Folk, Progressive, Hard Rock, Metal, Pop... so the great Leonard Cohen fits in perfectly too.

    The Eagles and Van Morrison maybe yes, the rest no. It’s not rock.

    ..astral weeks, moondance, and veedon fleece are not rock.. if anything, they are jazz-folk-soul pop...eagles stupid pop aside from the song out of control from desperado..

    Well, you like Bruce Springsteen and spit on the Eagles, who from a musical standpoint can only serve as his teachers (even though I doubt he could learn anything).

    Yes, well, there are indeed some oversights; among other things, there were even more at the beginning. I put this ranking together at 4 in the morning at work, and the next afternoon I noticed that I had left out people like Deep Purple, so... and anyway, Cohen and Cave are in there, but I don't know them very well, that’s all. Finally: it’s not exhaustive, but this is a ranking, not an encyclopedia.

    ..yes, I also like Bruce Springsteen.. I believe that the double album The River is truly a beautiful summary of the history of American music.. there’s folk, country, blues, R&B, R&R, surf, pop thrown into a deliberately ragged and chaotic mix.. conceptually, I see it very close to two other albums: The Basement Tapes by Bob Dylan and Exile on Main Street by The Rolling Stones.. albums that tell the journey to the roots of American music.. albums that carve a deep groove into the very bowels of America.. the Great American Novel... the Eagles, on the other hand, are just a shitty pop band.. empty music.. pointless radio trash.

    If Bruce Springsteen is the summary of the history of American music, Cicciolina is a virgin. Hello, clear your ears better.

    ..my friend, to me all "modern" music is crap...my great passion is classical...you know, Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Schubert, Dvořák, Stravinsky, Handel, Vivaldi, Haydn, etc...I studied music for 6 years...I played the violin and even played in an orchestra...I also sang for three years in a choir...I'm certainly not Accardo, Abbado, Karajan, Furtwängler, or Kubelík, but open your ears and tell your sister...and then your attitude is just dumb, snobbish bullshit towards Springsteen, just because he has had success and fame, that means he must suck..

    I, for Furtwängler, prefer Wrangler jeans, but I write snobismo and not snobbismo ;))

    ..so in art, everything that has great fame is crap.. okay, following this brilliant reasoning, even the great Ludwig van Beethoven is crap...

    Jurix, I didn't notice what you changed, but it's fine anyway;)) Come on @j&r: leave these comments to the newbies, art is art. Modern music cannot ignore classical music even if it wanted to, so... who cares?:-)

    Have you tried listening to and studying classical music... but this only makes you feel more guilty, you haven’t understood a thing. In fact, you’re "on fire" for the old filthy ignorant born in New Jersey who sings like a cowherd from Val Venosta and who knows how to write songs that are less than mediocre, made up of one and a half chords with absolutely ridiculous lyrics.

    Nice ranking, although the nude Rolling Stones are a bit shocking :)

    Beautiful! I don't know April Wine (except by name): what are they like? Any recommended albums? :-)

    @Gemini: Canadian pop-rock, like the albums "Animal Grace," "The Nature Of The Beast," or "Harder... Faster," featuring "Ladies Man," one of my favorites.
