3. As tempting as it was to vote for Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I ended up voting Led Zeppelin

[qnr]

4. That's ok, I got them, because I knew more would go the other way :) n/t

[wildhorses]

6. ya gotta admit for folk/country they could rock it out in their

own style...will the circle be unbroken is strong work!!

[qnr]

7. I've always enjoyed their work. Of course, the same could be said of

the other bands listed, but the others (for the most part) are more likely to be acknowledged.

[wildhorses]

9. and oh yeah BTW qnr

[qnr]

11. LOL thanks, I was just thinking the same about you :) n/t

[wildhorses]

5. somehow I am NOT surprised by your vote LynneSin

10. I just saw an old vw van going down the road this morning

and the little marching teddy bear was on the side, trucking!!

[martymar64]

13. We are everywhere!!!

The Bears were always my favorite Dead icon.

[LynneSin]

14. Woohoo Led Zeppelin is in the lead and Diebold wasn't involved

and I promise, I didn't make any fake accounts to help boost the numbers

[wildhorses]

23. diebold is a rusty old piece a' crap

and I kicked it around with my boots, baby!!

[southpaw]

16. Representin' for the Floyd, Yo!

[LynneSin]

17. If Zeppelin wasn't on the list and Queen didn't somehow show up

I'd vote for Floyd then! Although I'm still tempted with that Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

20. I'm not sure this is really a fair battle

I mean Zeplin and Flyod are totally different from the dead, CSN&Y or the Stones.

[wildhorses]

24. its all fair in love and war and in the world of rock-n-roll...

they are close enuff in genre and generation that you recognize them...how can we even define rock-n-roll much less catergorize it


main thing is ...did you vote?


and anyway

[yellowdogintexas]

25. what, no Stones? nt

[johnnie]

26. No contest here

The Beatles will always be the most influential band and every one of those other bands would say the same.
