[RayRay]

from the looks of most of the lists, you would think that there hasnt been any good rock music made in a long ass time...

 

[Bread]

This is way too ridiculous to narrow down to 10 or to even justify your top 10. But here are some off top of my head for me.

Alice in Chains
Al Green
Ray Charles
Coldplay
The Beatles
Disturbed
The Doors
James Brown
Elton John
Michael Jackson
Ministry
Morphine
Portishead
Otis Redding
Pantera
Tool
Sepultura
Sevendust
Simon and Garfunkel
Miles Davis


Honorable mention (even though I don't think they qualify per the OP's guidelines)

Bjork
Nine Inch Nails
Beastie Boys

Because they are just that important.

They do qualify.

Good picks guey.

 

[Bread]

Well I know they have several songs that qualify, but I think for all three it would be majority songs with no live instruments.

But if you say they are in, they are in! Revolutionary all three! HOORAY!

 

[Rubyn]

Tool
Davie Bowie (is he more glam rock?)
The Beatles
Alice in Chains
Radiohead
Metallica
Staind (I'm sure this will be unpopular)

 

[reno cool]

Miles Davis rock? common
I'm going Boney M for sure if disco's included

 

[Bread]

They do qualify.

Good picks guey.

Just watched all of these. Three very different yet equally talented acts. FUCK YEAH!!

Hey Matty, at Ultra in Miami we were way up front for this dubstep group (NERO) when they played this song.

As you can imagine, I went about apeshit.

 

[Rubyn]

I'd also like to add Bread's honorable mentions.

 

[Bread]

Reno I know he's not officially rock. Neither are James Brown, Ray Charles, Otis Redding or Al Green.

But fok man he said live instruments. Those guys HAVE to be included.

Fok you. Bring back Mr X!

 

[reno cool]

ok, Charlie Parker and Coltrane then,

Mr.X want to start new forum

 

[roguejuror]

Mr.X want to start new forum

 

[Bread]

Reno send me invite when that happens like I did to you! Don't be so mean!

 

[Bread]

I heard FreeFall was looking for a smaller branch off recently.

 

[Matty]

ok, Charlie Parker and Coltrane then,

They're in. I shouldn't have said "stringed" instruments. Basically, any kind of popular music that's not 100% electronic.

 

[MonkeyF0cker]

Hmm. What about horns?

Throw Thelonious Monk in for me.

 

[Bay Bud]

James Brown, Ray Charles, Otis Redding or Al Green. But fok man...Those guys HAVE to be included.

oh well hell! i'm going to have to change my list. i have all four of them. bread, remind me one time we're drinking in a bar to tell you about when i went and heard reverend al green sermonize in houston.

 

[rito]

Good lists here.
