Blue Moon Top 100 Bands Artists - Full List of Artists (pg 287)

View attachment 32442

It’s tricky when you’re compiling the results. You have to make sure that everything is added up correctly, but I went back, Jack, and checked it again, and Steely Dan are indeed among the elite as far as we’re concerned. Walter Becker and Donald Fagen’s unique fusion of pop, rock and jazz has given them a share of 20th place.

Tune in tomorrow to see who they’re sharing this hallowed ground with. You may be surprised.



I didn't vote for them and they probably wouldn't be top 20 for me but they are in that grouping that could be, if that make any sense.

Seen them live got all their studio stuff plus some (all?) of Fagen's solo studio work. Both he and band have live albums freshly released that I don't have yet.

A band I only really got into about 20 years ago, more fool me, but they are a great band. The kings of Yacht Rock.

Also a treasure chest for hip-hop samples.
 
I've literally missed the entire thread (because I'm an idiot who never checks the off-topic section, as this thread is right up my street) so can't complain but even as a relatively young guy I feel like any list of the 100 best artists is incomplete without Messrs Berry and Holly. Very surprised they didn't receive any nominations at all.

The others on that list are all iconic artists and for good reason, of course- Orbison both wrote and has been namedropped in some of the greatest songs of all time, Little Richard was a trendsetter and Fats Domino even got called the King by Elvis.

But Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly... those are the two that really surprised me with their absence.
Shame you missed out.
You only get a virtual kicking if you would have voted for Yes in your top 15. :-)
 
I have entered this thread on page 87 hoping to see who came in at number 20 and I am very disappointed it's not there. Can anyone confirm if the answer is on the previous page as I don't like wasting my time.
Thanks

Apologies - it should have said page 86. I have updated the title.

Lazy bugger.
