Worst Rock Band Ever !!!!

Jack White is okay by me if he convinced Jimmy Page and The Edge to make a great movie with him. That's very good company.

Ascension to worst-ever R&R band should require a multi-part test, something like the Supreme Court's definition of pornography: (1) high bombast + (2) pretentious self-seriousness + (3) technical incompetence + (4)broad if ephemeral popularity. In my lifetime it's Grand Funk Railroad.

Dio ROCKS!

I chuckle at some of the responses, as I remember, for some odd reason, one of the Lp's I bought in 1970 was Black Sabbath, "Paranoid". Can't listen to it today.

I also have in my Lp collection many of the bands mentioned, plus more that should be listed in this thread, but haven't yet. Do they get air time? No. Will I get rid of them? Probably not. I have purchased many in bulk, and I know there is an Adam Ant in there, along with a Boy George, just two off the top of my head. Some day after I'm gone somebody will get a good laugh as they go through the collection and wonder just what on earth was wrong with that guy???!!!
