Top 500 Musical Groups/Artists of Alltime By   [84 more lists]

Top 500 Rock Bands isn't 100% accurate as this includes solo artists, and though it does not include jazz or blues it does include soul, R&B, Americana, reggae, and classic country (yes, that is somewhat arbitrary, but for whatever reason i listen to blues and jazz differently than the rest, and would be too hard to compare Miles or Ornette or Hooker to, say, Aerosmith). Criteria for my greatest bands of all time list is a combination of recorded albums, live shows I've seen, live recordings I've heard, radio songs, and even overall image/album covers/general coolness or uniqueness. I guess that was a way of trying to explain that the ranking is just a gut feeling. But it's probably about 50% based on "live chops", hence the lower ranking of the Beatles, who quit playing live before the most creative parts of their career. I am very into live shows and live recordings.

Obviously, this list will change over time. I'm adding commentary to items whenever i get a spare minute or something interesting comes to mind about a band, probably 10-20 entries a month.

    Actually, #1 should be Neil Young And Crazy Horse, though i am a big fan of Neil in all incarnations. except for a few of those 80s Geffen genre records.

    i hate long plane rides, and i had just gotten back from my honeymoon, in europe a few weeks prior, so i blew off a chance to see the reunion show, figuring there was about a 70% chance of a tour. Almost every band that plays a full length reunion set in a full arena tours afterwards - if they are going to spend all the time to rehearse, put together a production, etc, why not take it on the road and milk it for some big bucks and pampered glory. Might prove to be one of the biggest mistakes of my life.

    One of the greatest Americans of alltime, and certainly my favorite lyricist (tho by looking at my list you will probably see that lyrics aren't the top priority, especially after you get past the top 20 or so)

    The first, and best, true metal band. Great with Ozzy, great with Dio ( http://www.ranker.com/list/ronnie-james-dio_s-greatest-album-moments/clark-benson ). and honestly, pretty damn good with Ian Gillan, Glenn Hughes, and even Ray Gillen for a few live shows. C**p with Tony Martin tho...

    Yes, BOC means more to me than the Beatles (but not more than the Beatles plus all the solo careers especially when you count on the impact of McCartney's live shows which have blown me away year in and year out, but this particular Ranking does not include solo material in the band's position (gotta have guidelines). So fire away with your flames, but this is the most unsung, underrated band in rock history - and one of the most original. They were also a phenomenal live band all the way up until the mid-90s (sadly they have really lost the plot at this point though they are still touring).

    PJ are a better-sounding live band now than they have ever been. They are playing widely different sets night after night. Their studio albums have been lacking the massive hooks of their first 3, but still tend to have 2/3 or so really strong songs, songs which grow on you live and you end up digging and turning to like 3 years after the album came out. I really can't say anything negative about Pearl Jam - they were probably my favorite band from 1992-95, and have never really stumbled since. For some reason they went long stretches without playing Los Angeles, though that has finally changed.They also have the distinction of being the most-i-have-ever-spent-on-a-scalped-ticket band, by at least 5X, for the fan club only show (I am a Ten Club member, just got shut out) in Chicago a few days before they headlined Lollapalooza.

    The first band I just had to own every album by. Back when that meant a lot.And my first live show ('82, with the late Rory Gallagher opening).UPDATE: I had parked the mighty Rush at #16 on my list.But in 2010, with the tour where they will be playing "Moving Pictures" looming, and the fine documentary Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage, I have come to my senses and moved them to their rightful slot just shy of my Top 10. Perhaps I myself have been as guilty as the critics I used to loathe as a kid. I am looking forward to this Rush show at a level which I save these days for festivals. I am turning to the Rush catalog and bootlegs regularly when I need comfort food. So I have vaulted Rush beyond their peers in VH and Aerosmith, and even above master songwriters The Beatles (who lose points for not being a live band) and Bob Marley.

    I don't think I had ever heard a Bob Marley song before I went to college. I probably heard more Bob Marley than any other artist in college. I have heard so much Bob Marley that I rarely find myself actively thinking "time for some Marley", but as overplayed as he might be I can't say there's a cringeworthy song in his entire repertoire.The second greatest individual songwriter of alltime.

    the first cassette i ever bought was Toys In The Attic, and the 3rd or 4th was Live! Bootleg. (we won't discuss the first vinyl album i bought)up until 1993 i had never met an Aerosmith song i didn't like. Still a full on rock-and-roll machine live, if you can handle a few power ballads in the mix.

    If I had been more of a casual fan when they were in their prime, I could easily see them in my Top 10. If I had seen them live, they might even be my #1 (I didn't start going to shows until I was about 14, and at that point they were on their last legs).

    Though the Beatles were a big part of my childhood, as they probably are for just about anyone, i didn't grow up in the 60s, so don't have that "nothing compares to the Beatles" mentality. But the main reason such an inarguably genius and seminal band didn't make my Top 10 is that the Beatles never played live in their prime, and live music (either experienced in person or recorded) is a good half of the equation for me.

    Tho the first 4 albums are the alltime classics, I am also a fan of the Van Hagar era (mainly the first 2 albums of that era). And I was pleasantly-shockingly- blown away by the reunion they did with Wolfgang on bass.

    Another where if I had been of age in the 60s and had seen live, would potentially be in my Top 10. Then again, when you die young, you get penalized a bit simply by lack-of-output - though perhaps not penalized as hard as if you stayed alive but put out loads of shite after age 27 . . .

    my favorite live band of the last 10 years. See my entry on The Beatles - Phil and Friends have the opposite weighting. I actually prefer some periods of P&F (particularly the Warren Haynes years, which i believe hardcore fans refer to as the Phil Lesh Quintet) to some of the years i saw the Grateful Dead (obviously, I wasn't old enough to see the Dead in '69 or '72)

    Growing up in the 80s when Born In The USA (a record I absolutely loathe, except for the title track) was so overplayed, I was not very into Springsteen. But as the years go by I appreciate The Boss more and more - he's an absolutely spectacular live performer with a deep catalog of great songs. And his output has been as consistent and prolific as anyone since he reformed the E Street Band in '99.

    This might be the dumbest list I've ever seen. The Misfits are in the top 25 for god's sake! Tool belongs in at least the top 50 of ANY list... and for my taste they would be in the top 20. But, to each their own I suppose...

    Neil Young at 11/04/2009 3:20 PM
    RIGHT ON! Neil has more energy, guts, brains, heart, soul and COOL than anyone! And he's the best singer, songwriter, and lead guitarist of all time! Plus, his acoustic work ain't bad either! And his electric music is the heaviest sound in all of music.

    Finally, a list showing Neil #1. Many people don't like his 80s albums, but I love ReAcTor. Great albums, great live shows, many great live recordings & nobody's cooler than Neil.

    The Allman Brothers Band at 11/04/2009 2:39 PM
    To me, the Allmans meet all of your criteria; great albums esp. thru Eat a Peach, great live shows & there was nobody cooler than Duane Allman and the rest of the Brothers. Fly on Skydog...They should probably be rated a little higher IMHO.

    KISS at 7/06/2011 5:59 AM
    Obviously you know nothing about rock & roll, kiss has great hooks, great riffs, and have been around for over 30 years selling albums. their music may not win grammy's, (i believe they have one but i am not too sure) but they play great music and put on a great show! You get your money's worth, which is more than most bands.

    Top 500 Musical Groups/Artists of Alltime at 7/08/2010 6:42 AM
    This is not my Top 500 but it's not a bad list. A few of these guys, I've never heard of. Somewhere near the top, I would have had to add Chuck Berry, Edgar Winter, Slade, Mott the Hoople and the Guess Who. I don't think any of these guys even made the list. If it had been the Top 505 Bands maybe they would have been on there. Still, good job!

      Top 500 Musical Groups/Artists of Alltime at 7/09/2010 9:19 AM
      thanks - and you know what, I think you are right about Slade and Chuck Berry, they slipped my mind. I wouldn't put either that high up on my list, but they both certainly deserve to be in my Top 500 so I will make an update and bounce the last few current bands off.

      Top 500 Musical Groups/Artists of Alltime at 7/27/2009 9:43 PM
      too new-wave ish for me. generally loathe 80s new wave (i lump them into that category tho that's not totally fair) altho i like a song or two by New Order and respect their talent- Hooky is a monster bass player. Joy Division is way more my thing.

    Ramones at 10/13/2010 1:10 AM
    The Ramones formed in 1974, and their influence can be heard in almost every band since. Punk and Grunge, just to name two movements, would never have happened if the 'Mones hadn't lead the way. This band deserves to be in the top 10, and maybe the top 5, certainly not buried down in 68th place.

    Tull developed and maintained a sound that was completely unlike any other band's, with the use of the flute as a lead instrument, and with a heavy classical music influence.

    Tool and Radiohead are similar bands but not in there music. If you're gonna put rh that low u gotta put Tool top 50 Technically they r the better band. MJK is simply one of the best Lyricists to ever walk the planet along with his vocal skills, same goes for Danny Carey, maybe a top 5 drummer of all time. P.S. OBVIOUSLY British (radiohead before tool and oasis before nirvana)

      uh, while i don't disagree that the Beatles are magnitudes better than the bands you mention, i don't think twentysomethings are rocking out to those bands either dude. Have you been to an Aerosmith concert? I have. Drunk Divorcees, hitting on any guy under 40. This guy's list isn't exactly brimming with Emo bands. And while many of his choices are, um, interesting, saying that anyone who would make a Top 500 Bands List doesn't read is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

      Thanks for the kind words - and if I had been of concert-going age to see the Doors OR Jimi, (or for that matter if either of them had not had their careers tragically cut short) I might well have them at numero uno. Another list concept will be to rank the best bands of alltime based on consistency - and in that case the bands that were cut short (Doors, Jimi, Nirvana, Zep) and the rare bands who stayed broken up (The Beatles) will certainly beat out Neil, Dylan, and the Stones

      They're fun to listen to, and they're musically talented and all that (and, um, this list is kind of wrong haha), but they aren't among the best bands of all time...

    Wow, how are The Beatles NOT number 1? Are you crazy? You shouldn't make a list based 50% on "live chops" since that isn't fair to a ton of the bands listed here, especially The Beatles. Maybe you should have named this list the "top 500 bands/artists based on live performances I have seen" because it's not only inaccurate but also very ignorant.

      Top 500 Musical Groups/Artists of Alltime at 2/26/2011 1:44 PM
      just to clarify for other readers (not you), when I say "live chops" that doesn't mean that I had to have personally seen the band live- it can come from live recordings / videos etc, though obviously i'm going to be slightly biased towards bands i've actually seen live. Never saw Jimi or the Doors, for example, but have heard and watched many great live performances from them

I didn't grow up in the 60s either..hell i'm only 18..so don't give me that bullshit excuse. The Beatles are the one's that started it all...they are the best of the best...the fact that they aren't even in your top 5..shows that your taste of music is atrocious...I don't even wanna see your opinion on Movies...I might throw up reading it..
