17rileyc Your top 10 would be a lot like mine

Queen Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd Red Hot Chilli Peppers Linkin Park ACDC Metallica Nirvana

That's 8

Gun'n'Roses Beatles Offspring U2 all fighting out for the last 2 spots.

Early U2 would be in 10 but not as keen on later stuff. Probably still sneak in 10 though

Always loved the Beatles.

What about Jimi Hendrix?

Or bands only.

Bob Marley

A lot of good soloists I haven't even considered

Top 10?

Very hard

Raspberry_Yoghurt

10 is just not enough. There are too many good bands! I have loads more than 10 in my top 10.

stoker68

yep, I hear ya

TheMoonwalker

But guys, all of these arent ROCK bands, are they? Bob Marley certainly not :)

I wouldnt even say U2 and Beatles is rock.

17rileyc

The Beatles would be considered classic rock. The rock genre is a very broad term, so U2 could loosely fit in. I'm not sure if Bob Marley could be included.

stoker68

ok, reggae don't count, I was just pointing out is impossible to name 10

kingspasski
