Ozzy Osbourne of Black Sabbath cites them as a primary influence. Lemmy of Motörhead holds them in much, much higher regard than the Stones. Matlock of the Sex Pistols loved them. George Benson, struck by "Abbey Road," immediately made his own version of the entire album. Robert Fripp decided to become a musician after hearing "A Day In The Life" on the radio, etc., etc. Does it count?

Two recycled chords and two pauses. Definitely effective, perhaps a bit limited.

The relentless and subtle power of advertising is truly effective. The fame that this artist has gained in recent times is clear proof of it.

Best ska-revival band of the '80s in England. The comparison with Madness holds up to a certain point. Less monotonous, more cultured, deeper, and definitely closer to the Jamaican musical roots.

Peter Green is strangely underrated (especially by many guitarists). Personally, I often find him to be superior to Clapton. At his best, his guitar style seems to me more original, more varied, and above all, more personal. Great also as a composer.

Stop slouching and wake up. Cobain is one of the most talented writers of the '90s. With all due respect, what applies to artists like the Beatles, Bowie, Elvis, etc., applies to him as well. Class isn't something you acquire; it's something to be envied.

Go listen to the Creedence: songs like "who'll stop the rain" or "have you ever seen the rain" are worth more than boring tracks like "the river." The synthesis and effectiveness that characterize Fogerty's lyrics and music are unknown to the verbose Springsteen (and while you're at it, try comparing the voices too).
