This one is simple. Best rock group ever is The Beatles of course but Queen follows in close second...

Jimi Hendrix.  This is because he opened up rock n' roll to what it is today!  Not only could he play fantastically, but he frequently thought outside the box and therefore brought many new styles and inventions to guitar players the world over.

Yeah Pink Floyd is the bomb no argument there but as far as the BEST. It has to be Earth, Wind, and Fire and the most unusual well that would be Parliament Funkadelic of course.

Children of Bodom have some good stuff. However, for me, the greatest is still Jimi Hendrix! And Alexi would probably agree!

Led Zeppelin is essentially the greatest rock band ever. What do you get when you put the first or second greatest guitarist in history with the first or second greatest vocalist with one of the greatest bass players ever with the greatest drummer in the history of rock? You get Led Zep. And on top of that make them all have at least 135 IQ and you have musical genius that cannot be equalled. Green Day, The Stones, even Def Leppard cannot contend with Led Zeppelin's genius chord progression and lyric, whether you wish to admit or not. They performed like no other band ever did putting on som of the longest concerts with out intermission. There is no substitution for Led Zeppelin.

Definately David Bowie, he is gorgeous, [not to you obviously], his music is really fab, been my fave since 1970's. But it's obviously who you like.

Isn't great how people who claim to love Jimi Hendrix cannot spell his name correctly.\n\nLed Zeppelin is the best Hard Rock band of all time and they run a close second to the Beatles as the best Rock band of all time.  Much as it pains me to say that.\n\nLed Zeppelin is the most important band of the late 60s and the entire decaded of the 70s.  Everyone can name two Zepp songs at least.  I could probably give you 70% of the catalog if I thought about it for half a minute.  I'm totally engrossed in them.\n\nIf you haven't read Hammer of the Gods yet do it.

Most good rock songs make me happy, it'd be impossible for me to name just 1. If I listen to the entire album of Tommy by The Who, I might get a little weepy towards the end.
