Top 16 Bands / Artists of Rock & Roll

Posted on: April 23, 2008 12:57 pm
 
Following the success of the Greatest Album Ever in Rock and Roll history contest started by DDriver I thought the same type bracket challenge to determine who the users of these CBS boards would choose as the greatest Performer / Band in the same genre would be a natural.

I would like to run a bracket competition for both single artists as well as groups. I am pretty sure that many members of nominated bands will find themselves in the "singles" brackets also.

I am curious to see which of the non obvious choices will join The Beatles, Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who and few others in the 16 for Bands as well as who joins Eric Clapton and others as single acts.

So let the nominations begin. Please submit your top ten for consideration in both categories.

I will compile the top 16 for both and submit any ties to the group for a vote off.
