Top 3 Most Overrated Artists contest in R&R.


I nominate
#1 KISS (What is R&R hall of fame after all?)
#2 Jonn Bon Jovi (actually can share same spot with Kiss)
#3 Rolling Stones (mostly they just don't make sense and hardly ever I can note of anyone being any good there)

Three Dog Knight was okay--I mean, they were talented guys but basically a cover band.
Dweller - I included Grand Funk solely and expressly for their pretentious faux magnum opus "I'm Your Captain". I feel revulsion just typing it. Unforgivable.

Czarivey - It's the Hall of Everybody. Early inductees were entirely worthy but as time has passed, standards have lowered. Is Lulu in there yet?
Aerosmith was a 3rd rate rock band in the 70's. They became a 1st rate band after all the great bands died out. Compared to what came later, Aerosmith is great. 3 Dog Night was so big in the late 60s early 70s that Stevie Wonder opened for them at the Garden. Hall of Fame? It is what it is.
I saw Grand Funk Railroad by accident at the Fillmore East when their 1st album came out. They were 2nd billing to Fat Mattress 3rd (Noel Reddings' band), and Jethro Tull top billing. I say by accident 'cause I went to see Tull and had no idea who they were. They were amazing! Their 1st 2 albums were ton's of fun!
