Chin for a Day Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 He should have been higher and how is McCartney above Lennon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTim Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 The fact Jay Z is ranked higher than Marvin Gaye Sam Cooke and Curtis Mayfield alone invalidated the list to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Disappearing Boy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 1 person disagreeing with him being on the list, 1 person agreeing with his position, 1 person saying he should be higher and 4 people writing off the list completely.

unextraordinarygirl Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'm with the lists are stupid crowd. They don't mean anything. It's just one person's opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZSebs Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I'm surprised that in that little blurb about Billie, they mentioned the trilogy instead of, well, any other album they have made. Don't get me wrong, I love the trilogy, but calling it a "mastery of styles throughout rock and roll history" is a bit of a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 How can they leave Freddie Mercury out of the list? ...Because it's a shitty Rolling Stone list that a bunch of balding 30 year old alcoholics threw together in 3 hours to justify their paycheck.
