You never got the appeal of generic hard rock to the masses?

How can Bob Marley be overrated when he is the only reggae artist 90 percent of people can name?

Roger Daltrey an overrated lead singer?
Pete Townshend an overrated guitarist?

Keith Moon an overrated drummer?

Most Overated Musicians.... Bon Jovi Bruce Springsteen Bob Marley CCR Skynard What say you?


Other than Bon Jovi, you've bumped your freakin head.

CCR may not have been technically sound musically, but neither was Dylan, Garcia etc. it's about song writing too in terms of musicianship. Skynard regularly mopped the floor with just about every band that they toured with. Nobody wanted to follow them onstage back in the day on the festival circuits. The likes of The Who, the Stones. Come on son. What side of the Mason-Dixon you on?

Whenever someone says something like this it's obvious they really don't have a clue what they're talking about.

I'm not a big Who fan, but Entwistle and Moon are some of the best (and in the case of Entwistle, possibly the best ever) to play their instruments in rock 'n roll. Their technical ability is without question.

“People talk about Eric Clapton. What has he ever done except throw his baby off a frickin’ ledge and write a song about it?”

That question answers itself. The Wailers were not just Bob Marley's backing band.

here here! such an average run of the mill band that gets tons of praise. I just don't get it neither.


Aerosmith is way overrated. They put out an album with 2 winners and 8-10 garbage.
