Best all around rock musician

[benagain]

William Hung. His moves me to tears every time :jointsmile:

[Tomorrow Never Knows]

David Bowie is my all-time favorite- I think he is a classic!

Bowie is also a good choice. He also played a ton of insturments.

[cygnustaxt]

Cedric Bixler Zavala and Omar Rodriguez Lopez.

yeah tmv fucking rocks man.

McCartney is great but I'm surprised no one has mentioned John Lennon in the same breath. If he hadn't been assassinated, he might have changed the world.

I am glad you said that since Lennon is my favorite musician, but again this thread is about best all around musician and McCartney is much better then Lennon in that area. It would also disqualify certain countertenors with fros from neo-acid rock bands.

I do however belief Plastic One Band to be the greatest rock record in history.

Mike Patton.

Chuck Berry. :thumbsup:

Without him, you wouldn't have the Beatles, or Led Zeppelin, or Black Sabbath, or the Doors. He invented Rock n Roll back in 30's. 30yrs before the Beatles ever made it on the scene. Thank Chuck, because without him, rock n roll wouldn't exist.

I never cared much for the Beatles either. I love Lennon on his own and some of their last workings, but their early stuff is so lovey dovey, foo-foo pansy music. Like songs like "I wanna hold your hand" is no different than Britney Spears singing "Hit me baby one more time." It was crap pop music then as it is today, so no, the Beatles suck nuts I think.

Give me some Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, not some fairy band with matching haircuts and suits singing about crap, hey, just like pop music today.

You missed the point of the thread.:clap:
It wasn't who was the earlier musician or who you think was a cooler musician. It was who is the best all around musician. Chuck Berry would be a weak choice, you could say he was the most influential, or made the best music, but not that he was the best all around , musician, he played guitar and sang, that was it.

The Rolling Stones had matching haircuts just as long as Beatles(It was considered rebellious in the early sixties, interestingly The Beatles were the first band to move away from the look, going with short hair at the height of the 60s) . Zeppelin would seem to have matching haircuts, just longer, think about it.

Robert Plant is a fairy, and he really does sing about crap.

Name three LZ songs and one will probably be stolen.

I cant stand paul mc but i admit he can play, i think kurt cobain would have been a legend

He was good, but belive it or not he was shit playing guitar. And he admittided it.

Paul Mc is probably one of the best. I love the beatles, what more can i say.
