Let me know if my analogies don't work as well. Hank Ballard & The Midnighters: 8/10 Lavern Baker: 6/10 The chances of me ever getting back into The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and their compatriots are practically nonexistent. Jerry Lee Lewis and The Everly Brothers should both go up in their rankings. I agree Trent and the gang have proven to be one of the staples in not just 90s rock, but music in general. Posted by Jordan Einstein on Tuesday, 05/10/2022 @ 16:06pm. 210. 155. 5. 1/10 = Not even worth of mention On which levels do you think each of these artists belongs? Etta James: 9/10 Not even a hot take at all lmao I have Durant at 14. But whats the legacy of the blockbuster album? ELO James Brown & The Famous Flames: 10/10 7/10 = Solid Picks I meant *borderline.

This pyramid, while not updated, has provided a lot of inspiration for my list that I'm currently writing: the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers ranked from best to worst. "If You Can Want" The Dirtbombs, Barbara McNair, Chazz Dixon. Isaac Hayes: 7/10 86. Stevie Wonder: 10/10 Lloyd Price For now, he just misses the cut. ELO, Joan Baez, Yes, Tupac Shakur, Journey, Pearl Jam, Bon Jovi, Dire Straits, Sister Rosetta Thorpe, The Cars, Nina Simone, Moody Blues. Duane Eddy: 6/10 I might as well jump in on this poll: Come on guys, let's put MJ in Level 5. 2009 I blame the clowns on the committee for it - but Deep Purple should be on this list AND at level 3. Fats Domino comes off as a classy and humble man in every interview and film I've seen of him. And oh, yeah, let's get the Moody Blues IN before we decide which tier they should be on. "Influence" is not really a matter of opinion. Magic, 4. I don't where to post this ever since that "Current Hall of Famers" doesn't have a comments, so I have to post it here or in the "The Immortals" page. Where does his beard rank among the NBAs greatest facial hairstyles ever? Dolph Schayes, 59. Green Day is maybe a 2. I'm giving him the Chris Paul memorial spot from the BoB. "The Love I Saw In You Was Just a Mirage" The Jackson 5, Vance Gilbert, The Uniques Michael Jackson, Sly Stone, George Clinton, Flava Flav, Prince, Frank Zappa, Dr. John, and Brian Wilson. 113. move to 2: Neil Diamond: 7/10 As much as I like SRV as a guitarist, his credentials as a performer (body of work) isn't up to many on the 2nd level. Here's part 2 of the rating the performers. The Animals: 8/10 Posted by Mike on Tuesday, 11/29/2016 @ 05:08am, Pearl Jam - level 3 Favorites: The Beatles, Elton John, Queen, CSN, Linda Ronstadt, Cat Stevens, The Beach Boys, Ruth Brown, Joni Mitchell. Bon Jovi would, naturally, be closer to the bottom, Posted by Tyler Partnow on Tuesday, 09/25/2018 @ 20:19pm. Their music and songs have influenced artists all over the world in every major musical genre over the last 50 years. This website saves cookies to your browser in order to improve your online experience and show you personalized content. 183. 1994 Their overwhelming commercial success then? 1995 I meant the DIRECT influence on later generations of rockers from people who were rockers themselves. Peter Gabriel Will you always remember seeing them in concert, even when you're 80 years old and peeing on yourself? I am williams by name. The Ronettes Most influential besides The Beatles, Elvis Presley, and Chuck Berry? Elvis Costello and the Attractions on Thursday, 03.7.13 @ 23:05pm The pyramid has been updated with the latest inductees. A couple others like AC/DC Underrated by casual fans as a defensive player, but did make All-D in '18-'19. Comments. Ray Charles: 10/10 "That's What Love Is Made Of" Michael Jackson, Bobby Vee, Choker Campbell, The Magicians. Judas Priest (Level 1 or 2) 3)John Lennon-Imagine being so overrated, it isn't hard to do, too much love being in the Beatles, but that should have been all for you. Anybody read his book and know the ranking? 56. Talented as hell, but weird as hell. Parliament - Funkadelic: 10/10 62. Steve Miller: 3/10 9. "100 GREATEST ARTISTS OF ALL TIME". 9/10 = All Time Greats As Bill Simmons said in his original article though, this is subjective. Patti Smith "A Legend In Its Own Time" J Dilla (as an exercept of his song "One Eleven"). The Doobie Brothers-1 @ Follower Dick Clark would be a good call here too. Bruce Springsteen Radiohead have been called the last important rock band by tons of people. 122. Rating Numbers: He's slightly ahead of Scottie because Wade took over the 2006 Finals and Scottie never really managed to be that guy - even in '94 when he finished 3rd in the MVP voting. The Mavs had Dirk, a semi-washed Kidd, Tyson Chandler, two diminutive scorers and 80% of Shawn Marion. Diana Ross seems to be a rather unpleasant lady based on her public outbursts. ******* Most civilized inductee? T. Rex-1, maybe 2 1 bestselling book around the premise in 2009. It would only make sense, since the next 4 are not perfect multiples of 12 anymore. Cheap Trick: 6/10 2015 The "5" Royales 1)Led Zeppelin-demote to the 4th tier. "From Head to Toe" Elvis Costello, Chris Clark The Ventures: 7/10 Joni Mitchell 3) THE FOUR TOPS at # 79 Queen: 10/10 6. 220. Eagles: 9/10 The first change I would make to this pyramid: Michael Jackson to Level 5, perhaps replacing Jimi Hendrix. Curtis Mayfield: 9/10 Among these are: 2. 181. 1/10 = Not even worth of mention Posted by Andrew on Thursday, 10/31/2013 @ 17:40pm, We need a space at the top for the Based God. 123. Now, look at that list of artists' cover versions of MIRACLES' songs and ask yourselves: 2007 139. "That's What Love Is Made Of" Michael Jackson, Bobby Vee, Choker Campbell, The Magicians. Oops. From 2013: "Point It Out"' The Supremes and The Temptations. Genesis T. Rex (Level 2) 201. 3/10 = Mediocre 1990 Ma Rainey 3. Well, nice as that was, the moment is passed, and the Ramones are virtually irrelevant to the contemporary musical landscape. The Grateful Dead 7/10 = Solid Picks Most snubbed artist who is now an inductee (besides Rush and Alice Cooper*)? 2/10 = Failure The Small Faces/Faces, The Hollies, and The Ventures Both haven't been to the Finals. 119. Del Shannon 43. It's fine. -Non-US or UK? James Taylor Deal wit' it, yo. Recently Updated. Hakeem Olajuwon, 11. Dezmond, I won't go into a full-blown rant about my distaste for Neil Young, but I'll leave you with this nugget: I can generally be objective about artists whose music I'm not overly fond of (Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, Miles Davis, Bob Dylan). Genesis: 7/10 I still listen to modern rock/indie radio at times, but for the most part, I start losing sustained interest around 1998 or '9. Throw in Dirk's career numbers which are amazing when you look at them and he belongs in this spot. The charter of the Pyramid states no MVP can drop below Level 3 unless it's for a good reason. The pyramid depicted above is what the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame might look like if the inductees were organized into five increasingly elite levels. If they don't? Tom Chambers, 109. Dion, Posted by Paul K on Wednesday, 10/22/2014 @ 00:11am. Joni Mitchell and Van Morrison at 3 should bump a few from 4.. Posted by Follower on Tuesday, 04/2/2019 @ 18:34pm. Posted by Shrek on Monday, 01/7/2019 @ 13:23pm. But every 15 that are added should mean one more to Level 5, two more to 4, and so on. I also feel EXACTLY the same about John Lennon. I think that eventually Rush will be recognized, in the future, as a 5th tier band. 85. Posted by Bill G. on Thursday, 01/29/2015 @ 19:58pm. Bill Simmons Hall of Fame Pyramid; ABA All-Time Team; NBA & ABA All-Star Game. I just heard the Bill Russell podcast (last one, I believe) and he clearly lists the top-15. -I've heard stories that James Brown was a ballbuster. Taking risks? The Temptations: 10/10 Posted by Shrek on Friday, 01/4/2019 @ 18:59pm. Stevie Wonder 200. Stevie Nicks 1999 Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps: 7/10 He wound up avoiding being lumped in to any Rock and Roll labeling likely because he was being marketed to a wider and more mature audience than the industry was marketing towards for the acts that got lumped into the early Rock and Roll label. He is quite vital (i don't think anyone can claim to be the best selling artist in 2 different decades). Can't wait until 2pac and Eminem are inducted! 7. Bobby Womack: 7/10 The ninety-six greatest basketball players of all time, arranged into five tiers: Levels One through Four, then the Pantheon - the best of the best - at the very top. Putting him ahead of bands like The Byrds, The Doors, Black Sabbath and most of the other bands on the 3rd tier is ridiculous. Nina Simone - 1, Posted by Classic Rock on Thursday, 01/25/2018 @ 16:33pm. Over here in Britain May has been a wildlife activist and critic of fox-hunting Nirvana 1992 Professor Longhair Personally, probably Jeff Beck.

Either Sam Cooke, Fats Domino, Roy Orbison, or anyone from Motown (remember, they were taught how to move about at high society functions). (I would say second or third). https://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/2019/04/ranking-every-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-inductee-by-tiers.html 89. The people at the top are more of the big timers, to me. Ramones: 10/10 Pat Benatar (Level 1) you like simmons a lot. 26. Reserved for acts who are definitely Hall of Famers, but don't quite possess a Level 3 rsum for one or more of the following reasons: I actually think that every act up there is almost exactly where they should be. Aerosmith Yes, it's personal. My hatred of him is well documented, but I objectively can't see him as anything more than a lower-tier Bob Dylan. Oh Wait, those dimwhits on the election committee have overlooked them again! From what I can gather, they were celebrated because they never quite made it, and because, as is wont to happen, their creative limitations were reinterpreted as a profound artistic statement. He was the 2nd best player on the Lakers teams from '08-'10, but didn't make the cut for the original Pyramid. Otherwise, the other groups I like althrough I disagree with you on Linda Ronstadt because I happen to like her music and her voice. 48. We already have the news to educate ourselves on sociopolitical affairs anyway. Randy Newman: 6/10 The triple double was basically that Thunder team going out of their way to make it happen which is sort of disgraceful, but Westbrook was the second best guy on a Finals team and a few other conference finalists. He's made 3 1st Team All-NBAs, but only made the playoffs twice (this year will be the 3rd). John Lee Hooker: 8/10 Bill Simmons' Hall of Fame Basketball Pyramid Basketball Hall of Fame Sets Number of Required Items 95 Current Finest Possible Set Rating 09.816 View Set Checklist Shop Set Start Set Notes: This set requires official rookie cards for each player. I think the Doors and Grateful Dead should be in the fourth level of the pyramid. That's at least 70+ years of music I'm combing through and constantly digging up gems. Earl Monroe, 76. Posted by Enigmaticus on Thursday, 10.31.13 @ 09:54am, Posted by Enigmaticus on Wednesday, 10/22/2014 @ 09:54am, I am shocked that Enig would think that "In my honest opinion, Rush should also be placed a lot higher. Rush (middle 4th) 4/10 = Marginal Take a deep breath. I'd probably move David Bowie & U2 to 5 level. Green Day: 9/10 "After All" The Supremes, The Marvelettes. Percy Sledge For example, in the Aug. 16, 2018 episode, Simmons told Curry his latest ranking of #16-#27 and had Curry at #24. That's it. Posted by Michael W on Friday, 05/21/2021 @ 14:58pm. 7. 15. The Paul Butterfield Blues Band: 3/10 1993 Dinah Washington 1997 Mahalia Jackson Janis Joplin: 10/10 6/10 = Decent Artists Roger Daltrey is involved with the Teenage Cancer Trust. I still have no idea how Dirk managed to get that group to the Finals and then win the whole thing. The Rolling Stones: 10/10 Jeff Beck as well La Bomba [same thing] In addition, the Miracles have been regarded as the most covered act in Motown's roster and have influenced numerous artists worldwide in the last 50 years. Public Enemy, then Beastie Boys, then Run-DMC, then Grandmaster Flash & the Furious 5 (Cant wait to see NWA and LL Cool J get in) 150. 14. https://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/2020/01/every-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-inductee-ranked-from-best-to-bon-jovi.html I cannot think of a single scandal or controversy in which he was involved, and I've never heard or read a negative word about him. The Drifters Bonnie Raitt: 7/10 Posted by John R.C. 61. In the case of Ray Charles, the musical influence he had is so massively widespread across multiple genres, so well documented, and seemingly so obvious to the ears of anybody with half a musical ear who takes the time to actually listen to what popular music sounded like before he began having hits and what it sounded like after those hits; that your statement that you "don't see the influence" marks you as either too historically uneducated or too biased by your tastes to really be a serious participant in evaluating such topics of discussion. Young Frankenstein 81. Dwayne Wade [up from Level 3, below Walton]. Journey: 3/10 Jackson Browne: 7/10 Neil Young Nirvana and Radiohead belongs in the third. Booker T & The M.G's: 8/10 it's 2019 and theAMAZINGcool is making a TRIUMPHANT return !!! A half-century ago, Pink Floyd unleashed a classic that still lingers on the Billboard charts and in college dorms to this day. 4. Johnny Cash: 10/10 -Weirdest? Best hip-hop act: The Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, Run DMC. Cream This is Pt 1. Was Shaquille ONeal the one Pantheon player who could have been top five if he really wanted it? Artis Gilmore, 87. 87. Steve Miller: Level 1, Posted by SotN on Friday, 12/18/2015 @ 03:31am. Fela Kuti (Level 1) Chicago- 4 No, I just want to see on anyone's opinion on the Hall's inductees. Heart Did the management of this establishment put you up to this? The most obvious one to me is Metallica, who are no brainers for level 4 at least, and could possibly mount a case (admittedly a weak one) for level 5. Here is Simmons' explanation of the idea . Duran Duran: 8/10 Still recording new material and performing around places. Buffalo Springfield They should be upgraded too. The Beach Boys 5 Posted by Mike on Tuesday, 04/2/2019 @ 14:58pm, Radiohead is widely considered the most influential and important act since Nirvana. "5)Elvis Costello-Alison, and I cannot name another song.
