Robin Gibb? WTF? No Iggy Pop. What do you hate rock and roll!!!
Right On! He's one of the greatest front men and artists ever, the stooges created like 20 genres outta 3 albums! As good as the stones are, and my 2nd favourite band, they created rock n roll, and rock n roll excess, thats it, they folowed trends, they may have done them pretty damn good (cherry oh baby being better than the original or hey negriat etc - and thats just reggae) but they didnt create them
iggys a highly original artist, and not only msucially but he practically invented stage craft, things like stage dives and crowd abuse, and hes a survivor, he stilll puts himself thru the same jumping around, dancing, stage diving etc that ppl half his age wouldnt even do
also Vince Neil - a punk? yeh sure, a wannnabe, and if nething influenced more by the New York Dolls
HJW
