tom petty?

 

 

He is one of my favorites, but i am surprised to see him on that list. He IS underappreciated in a way, meaning that the songs besides his greatest hits album dont get enough press, but he not nearly as underappreciated as many of the other artists on that list.

 

Why the hell aren't the Pixies on there?

Ah! I was just coming here to post this! :lol

I couldn't have picked a better #1. Tom Waits is the most underappreciated artist by far!! Wilco should be #2!!

 

it seems to me though that the people who listen to him treat him like God, which is a large amount of appreciation, which is what bothers me with this list. is it monetary appreciation? critical? fan appreciation? is this measurable at all? or is this just a waste of time...

what are you trying to say about RS? :lol

 

I actually don't have that much hatred for the magazine, its definitely full of garbage but there is also some enjoyable content...but when it comes to lists, they are almost guaranteed to be awful.

The Pharcyde has some Taliban-level fans. I like them fine, but not enough to kill for.

I think The Feelies should be up there. But I agree with Nick Drake also having to be on the list. The list is very stupid (no matter who made it) because seriously Bob Seger and Tom Petty. I do, however, agree with Sonic Youth's placing because there records especially their early stuff and their 90's experiments are highly underappreciated.

Roxy definitely deserves to be on that list.

 

I know that 90% of RS is crapola, but man that 40th anniversary issue is a keeper! GREAT interviews with a number of folks.
