Music Banter Hall Of Fame: Nominations Thread

Disagree. Maybe a normal hall of fame, but this is the rab hall of fame, only tastes should really come into it IMO. Else we only end up with the same old banRAB that everyone else has in their HoF's and no one else of interest. If any influence comes into it, it should be whether they influenced you at all, directly or indirectly, not the general music lanRABcape.
 
Yeah anyone who writes beautiful music and tries to raise awareness for classic underground groups is a real loser in my opinion.
 
Absolute yes to Chuck Berry. Not only is he one of the most influential people in the history of rock but stuff he recorded fifty years ago still has an edge to this day.
 
Truth.

I guess I just respect her as a female musician with the attitude that I got to see from her as well. When I was younger I idolized Gordon and marveled at the fact that she was a chick rocking out on stage in a band like Sonic Youth, and although of course there are many female musicians (some much more talented than Kim Gordon) who represented the same thing, Sonic Youth were probably one of the first who I noticed and who inspired me.
 
Yes. I'm not a fan of King Crimson but I think they deserve it. As far as influence/importance goes it's pretty unquestionable and alot of long-standing regulars here like them like boo boo and lespaul.
 
Public Enemy gave me an alternative to NWA and other such faire and were a pipeline to other great rap artist like Above the Law and OutKast...I even saw them live...And when they did Bring the Noise with Anthrax that sealed it for me...I vote them in. Even if Flav is kind of a joke now.
 
ok, that's what i was saying; that's a legitimate reason. but not liking his music because, quote "He watched girls pee"(refer to one of the previous posts) doesn't pertain to even listening to it. and this isn't an attack on you, don't get me wrong, but can you at least see what i'm saying?
 
1. I have never changed my stance. I always look for a mix between what I like, and what was important/influential/innovative/just plain good.

2. Elliot Smith is the king of the whole indie acoustic thing in my eyes, which happens to be a pretty f'n big deal (indie-acoustic, that is) right now. Elliott Smith didn't exactly influence a lot of good music, but he did influence quite a bit, just like Nirvana.
 
I was trying to say Paul sucked but my shitty grammar is catching up with me. I was trying to say that Paul has a consistently bad solo career.
