-   -   MY Top 50 ROCK GODS (http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/showthread.php?t=1988)

These list are for ROCK GODS, people that have influenced others far far beyond just their regular fan base.
that is why I did not put too mnay of the l;ast 10 or so years, I still do not know what their influence will be.
as far as women in rock.

my only rock goddess is KIM GORDON. PJ Harvey is clodse to it but she has yet to leave a legacy. maybe she never will. everyone I mentioned has left a legacy.

rollins is OK, not a rock god. greg ginn should be a rock god before rollins.

now, a list of underground rock gods, would be a LOT different.

By the way what's van halen doing in there?

eddie van halen and david lee roth are ROCK GODS, shasring the pantheon.

this was not a "hip" rock gods list, or an indie list or an underground rock gods list.

She was in Jefferson Starship. That pretty much denies rock godliness right there.

What's "meh"?

Rob Instigator 05.19.2006 10:43 AM

blondie is cool, but I would not consider them rock gods.
rock demigods for sure.

Toilet & Bowels 05.19.2006 10:59 AM

i wouldn't call them rock anything

Katy 05.19.2006 11:36 AM

Iggy Pop is my Top 50.

meh is the text equivalent of shrugging one's shoulders. possibly a bit more negative.

Even worse...she was in Starship without the Jefferson. Oh Gracie...did you need the money that bad??

What about Juliana Hatfield? Tori Amos? They rocked my world.

HOW COME NONE OF YOU HAVE MENTIONED TOM VERLAINE OR THE OTHER GUITARISTS IN TELEVISION ? They're playing is almost beyond words.

Apparently no one likes the name "Stevie". I haven't seen Ray Vaughn or Nicks.

Rob Instigator 05.22.2006 10:20 AM

stevie ray vaugh is a BLUESMAN. I reserved my top 50 to ROCK people. hence, no johnny cash, no james brown, etc.
