Don't worry I voted for The Beatles too.
The Beatles? Weren't they that third-rate Hank Williams/Chuck Berry tribute band...?

I've just got round to voting in this very important poll.
I couldn't help but notice that every other singer has at least a perfunctory word or two about his/her power or influence, but all Morrissey has is a silly bit about his "gladioli wielding followers." I find that rather sad, somehow, that they've boiled it down to this - as if the man's lyrical ability, vocal talents or singular persona are somehow secondary to the insanity of his fans.
Besides, I've never wielded a gladiolus in my life.
BUMP ... and possible overlap with another thread...
I'm in a Rock and Roll band: tonight is "The Guitarist" cue Johnny... http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00sf772

Jeez, that's a tough one.
Much as I love J. Marr, I think it's gonna have to be Jimi Hendrix for me; it's apples and oranges, really.
J. Marr was breathtaking, but Jimi was divine.
I think you can foget it for The Smiths. Suggs was on the Danny Baker show this morning (he'll be on the show later doing an Ian Dury song), and he let slip that the top three bands are Queen, Led Zeppelin and The Beatles.

Still a chance that Moz/Johnny might get singer/guitarist though.
I nmissed the first 20 minutes or so. Just saw a load of guff about Led Zep. Were The Smiths or Moz actually mentioned on the show at all?
