I think y'all are sleeping on the quiet genius of this: Every type of music was eligible: from the Beatles to Beethoven; from country to classical; from pop to hip hop. It was the most ambitious survey ever undertaken.

I know!!! You'd think they would have quietly buried that part once they saw their results! "Before Kind Of Blue, earth was a world without music or form..."

"What's Goin' On" jas never done much for me either, get both of them out of this poll

that may seem controversial but at the end of the day we live in a democracy

otm -- also hendrix but no clapton? the fuck?

a fake wannabe trying to be a pimp (history mayne), Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:09 (thirteen years ago) link

eric clapton is the sort of proper music that never gets a look in in these polls

diouf est le papa du foot galsen merde lè haters (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:10 (thirteen years ago) link

too many journalists with gnvqs from some polytechnic who think they can decide what is good music, imho

He's too black for these racist polls

Juice Should Be Sterliized (Tom D.), Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:11 (thirteen years ago) link

tbh i dont think it matters if he is black or not its not about that its all about the music

30. Oasis - Be Here Now

O-0

piscesx, Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:24 (thirteen years ago) link

i agree about the lack of Clapton but don't take it out on Miles Davies, he was a huge influence on guys like Nik Kershaw and Level 42.

Chapman Pincher Overdrive (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:29 (thirteen years ago) link

Yes, they improved on him by adding more melody

Juice Should Be Sterliized (Tom D.), Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:30 (thirteen years ago) link

And getting rid of the annoying trumpet sounds

Chapman Pincher Overdrive (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 14 September 2011 17:31 (thirteen years ago) link

Replacing them with superior synth trumpet sounds

another common criticism of these polls is that the dance and electronic genres aren't recognised, but bands like radiohead and the killers have been inccorporating dance influences into soundscapse that work at home as well as in the club

Unfortunately Miles Davis never had the chance to work with a bass player as gifted as Mark King, who knows what he - they - might have achieved
