Band with highest success/talent ratio?


Which bands do readers thinks have the highest success to quality ratio? In other words, which bands have been very successful yet deserve little success since their music is terrible?
I'll stir the pot right away with my #1 choice: Kiss. They were around for a while, made millions, dressed up in makeup because no one would've listened to them otherhwise, and maybe had one good song (but probably not).
My next choices would be Aerosmith and Dream Theater, although I'm not sure the latter were very successful. I hope not.
achilles
That's not a bad idea, Mapman.
I would add that since the Beatles were rightly asssigned maximum talent and success, no one can use 10 for a numerator or denominator anymore; both are reserved for the Beatles.
So your Genesis score would really have to be different. But they will not have a high score no matter whether they're given a 8/7 or 7/6.
Let me try a few:
Jimi Hendrix: 7/9 = 0.78
The Doors: 8/9 = 0.89
Lady Gaga: 8/3 = 2.7
Kiss: 8/3
Neat system, I like!
I assess the talent level in Genesis as essentially equal to the Beatles.

The Beatles clearly edge Genesis out to some degree in success though neither were slouches by any stretch.

here's some others of interest to me in particular (I'm a progressive rock fan):

King Crimson: 6/9
Moody Blues: 7/8
Camel: 3/8
Pink Floyd: 9/9
Yes: 7/9
Procol Harum: 5/9.5
kansas: 6/5

That would make Kansas slightly overrated and Camel way underrated.
Genesis needs two rankings. The Peter Gabriel era and the Phil Collins era.

Peter Gabriel era: more talent, less success

Phil Collings era: less talent, more success
