    Pelvis Parsley was a breakthrough in the sexual revolution that connected music and sexuality.. In no way was he a King of any sort..

    There have been many Princes, but I don't believe there ever has been a King of Rock, since so much passion and difference goes into the creation of music. Basically the combination of talents are involved in anyones successes within the industry. One might include Buddy Holly in this search, but because his life was short lived, I don't consider him a candidate. Chuck Berry laid it down right, but I also think that his claim to fame was the racial barriers that existed at the time. Some Princes might include Don McClean for the endurance of a song that endures the test of time, "American Pie"... who doesn't know most of the words to that tune?

    A King dominates every aspect of the music world to include almost all forms of composition and the Mastery of all instruments.. Rick Wakeman transcended a large portion of Rock yet "Yes" fell just a bit short after the Epic of "Journey to the Center of the Earth"..

    Now looking at "A Passion Play", or "Thick As A Brick", even "Aqualung", presents a magnificient mix of Talent and Creativity...

    I don't see what is so great about The Eagles. I've got their greatest hits and it's just so-so.

    The Beatles on the other hand, they are great. Look at all those number one hits! I've got almost all of their albums on my MP3 player.

    i really enojy the Beatles and Oasis.

    I also think Live is a great band.

    And don't mind U2 either. or R.E.M.

    and Green Day.

    Ha! You think that buying the Greatest Hits means you can decide whether they are great or not. Trying buying original albums first, I recommend 'One Of These Nights'.

    like many have said, Incubus! they r great.. even if u don't like their genre of music, u have to give them credit on their talent. Brandon Boyd is insane at vocals and with a greta band it equals an all around good band

    and for some reason EVERYONE in here is in love with TOOL.. what did they do so great?? LET INCUBUS AND METALLICA RULE THE MODERN MUSIC INDUSTRY (Btw my favorite band is a band not too many people are fans of: SYSTEM OF A DOWN!)

    Maybe because Tool are really good? Metallica have been and gone in my opinion, they are over-rated.

    I've probably posted on this thread before and don't remember. But the three bands that haunt me and I just keep coming back to:

    Black Sabbath (the original 8 albums with Ozzy)
    Roxy Music/Bryan Ferry
    David Bowie (pre-1980)

    Yes, I do think the pre-dicso 1970s were the Golden Age of Rock and Roll.
