1. beatles
2. pink floyd
3. led zeppelin

maybe for album or song but otherwise that discography is way too short even if the quality were higher than it is.

rock is objectively the best genre. nothing else is really interesting enough to put there. miles davis? maybe but jazz is kind of memey and gets boring much quicker

>Most unique
Give me a break, Oingo Boingo surpasses the Smiths in that regard by a mile, might as well say Depeche Mode is the most influential synth act and is comparable to Bach while you're at it.

You're not going to be able to build a top 10 rock band list without acknowledging that it mostly comes from the 60s and 70s.

>>63772152
>The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

>no mention of Bob Dylan in this thread
these are the artists he's influenced mentioned in the thread so far:

The Beatles
Pink Floyd (both Syd and Roger Waters cite him as an influence)
Jimi Hendrix
The Rolling Stones
David Bowie
Dire Straits
The Velvet Underground
King Crimson (Robert Fripp has mentioned how Dylan helped him realize songs don't need to adhere to radio format length)
Radiohead
The Doors (Jim Morrison at least)
>>
>>63781660
influence ≠ best

>>63781923
Fun fact: Dylan has the most bolded albums out of any non-jazz artist on rym.

>>63772008
Led Zeppelin is a clusterfuck of stolen blues riffs
The Jimmi Hendrix Experience has too short a discography
David Bowie is overrated
