Maybe it's sacreligous to say this in the world of rock but I'll say it anyway
I frickING HATE ELVIS.
And if you've watched TV in the past 5 years you know a black keys song. You might not know its them but it is physically impossible to walk through today's world without hearing their music on at least a weekly basis.
And if you want to discuss "greatest talent" then I'll whole heartedly agree with you on NMAS but I think more has to go into a "Greatest" conversation than just talent.
Like I said earlier you need: Legacy, musicianship and popularity...... Very few bands can achieve all three and that's what makes them great.

you're comments conflict one another.
Elvis is The King.
think how you will, but it will never change that fact. it's more crazy for me that a childhood neighbor was this iconic rock figure. a half million people show up every every Aug 16th to attend the candlelight vigil, 35 years after his death.
hate all you want, but name something come close.
you don't hate Elvis. you just don't understand, yet. trust me on this.
think of it like this. you chose "CottonWasKing". I would have chosen "For What it's Worth"
Cotton was a song WSP wrote and played. FWIW was The First song WSP ever played.
and on the real, i have no clue what the black keys are. don't know and don't care.

I feel the exact same way about The Doors... his voice and lyrics absolutely do my head in...
but thats what makes this board fun at times... It would suck if everyone just agreed...
