Another best band poll - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brad Russ · 11-01-2003, 12:51 PM

I know alot of you are probably getting sick of all these best band, and artist polls, but I thought I'd start doing some where the bands, and musicians are a little more evenly matched, both style wise as well as popularity wise. I just thought this would be a little better then the typical, and lopsided Britney Spears vs Janis Joplin, and NSync vs Beatles polls that we see so much of.

Of the five bands I listed, I think my favorite comes down to the Moody Blues, and Pink Floyd. I have actually been trying to figure out for close to a year which group I like better by playing their greatest hits albums over, and over again, and I think I have to just barely go with The Moody Blues. But tomorrow I may feel differently. I think that Pink Floyd was definitely the more innovative of the two bands with their amazing guitar playing, and unique sound, and lyrics, But I think the fact that I grew up with the Blue's, and can sing most of their songs note for note, makes me choose them. Had I not been brought up on their music, I'd probably go with Pink Floyd.

Anyways, of the groups I listed, who is your favorite, and least favorite? Also, who is your favorite psychadelic group of all time? Please vote! Thanks!

Out of that list I like Pink Floyd and Jefferson Airplane the best. I never cared much for The Greatful Dead.

Mr. Stefani · 11-01-2003, 02:48 PM

hands down pink floyd.

Kay Scarpetta · 11-01-2003, 02:51 PM

Pink Floyd and Grateful Dead

ABlairican Pie · 11-01-2003, 02:52 PM

Pink Floyd.

(Three different ones)

You know, I've not really heard enough of the Grateful Dead....?

Dean Winchester · 11-01-2003, 04:38 PM

I voted Pink Floyd, for least favorite, probably Cream. i have never really liked Clapton (sorry, I know he's a legend and all, just not really my cup of tea)

Penny Lane · 11-01-2003, 08:11 PM

The Moody Blues

~*Hannah_Lee*~ · 11-02-2003, 10:45 PM

Pink Floyd, definately.

Faith · 11-03-2003, 12:21 AM

Pink Floyd

Crimson and Clover · 11-03-2003, 12:37 AM

I cant pick. I like all of them.

Lee · 11-03-2003, 12:37 AM

I picked Jefferson Airplane because they were there, but I would
have picked The Eagles if I were given the option.

Moonshadow · 11-03-2003, 12:42 AM

Grateful Dead or Pink Floyd..

The Moody Blues is one of the best bands of all time in my opinion. They had a haunting sound all their own. I love one of their later hits, Wildest Dreams.

I was a fan of Jefferson Starship. In high school, I fell in love with their song, Miracles. I then saw them perform in concert.

I would add Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band to the list. I was obsessed with them in the 70s and 80s.

I thought Clapton was really good in Cream, but stuff since then, I dunno. Kinda lightweight...He's a good guitarist of course, but he never really grabbed my attention.
