My buddy John Carbone recently forwarded me this article ranking the members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (click here.)
It’s a fun list but like all lists it is subject to one’s own tastes and preferences. For instance, sliding the Rolling Stones to Number 15 was bogus. Chuck Berry, Beatles, Elvis, Dylan in the top 4 slots makes sense but the Rolling Stones should be in the 5 spot and not James Brown. (And no, this is not a racist move on my part because I would have JB somewhere in the Top Ten. However, putting him at #5 seems a little too PC for me.)
Note – The Ramones were ranked #7 some 8 slots ahead of the Stones. Guess that Mick and the boys still can’t get no satisfaction.
