Why is Pearl Jam a 15 and Nirvana a 10. And why is Nirvana or Black Sabbath getting knocked out in the first round, both those bands are elite 8 and Nirvana in my opinion is number 1.

See Game 13 comments

Game 15 You're kidding

Game 16
2 - U2

Music is such a personal thing, and as your list suggests, a very important part of age group identification. Then there's the whole question of music evolution, so that Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, and the King, people who opened the door for many of the folks listed here, aren't even in the tourney.

My answers reflect my prejudices for and against certain groups, certain styles of music as well as my love for some.

If my comments come off as mean, sorry. I do appreciate the time and thought that went into concocting this survey and I enjoyed thinking about my answers... but if I'm ever alone on an Island and allowed only three CDs they would be Abby Road (The Beatles), Take Five (Dave Brubeck Quartet) and the Cole Porter Song Book (Ella Fitzgerald).
Sincerely,
Old Fart
