Revolutionary Musicians

[Jayshen]

If we are toking about revolutionary

1)Robert Johnson and the many unsung blues players for giving us the blues

2)Metallica hu taught us to save money on barbers and that a good shampoo is vital to head banging. ok they den start the long hair thing... but they made it cool....haha

3) Micheal Jackson.... hey his nose may be wacked but he made alot of good songs tt many ppl are still covering.... from tuck andres :man in the mirror to AAF's smooth criminal

4) Extreme: They gave us "more than words" which is practically the most learned guitar song which beginners play... i keep hearing new players play this song...

5) U2: Bono is doing so much to change the world...

Elvis - After all, he's known as the King of RocknRoll.
Beatles - No explanation needed.
Jimi Hendrix - Without him, the electric guitar will be different.
Shiina Ringo - Something like a Japanese Bjork. It's hard to pin down her musical genre. I will recommend her album, Karuki Zaamen Kuri no Hana. It's amazinggggg.
Radiohead - Okay, one of my absolutely favourite band so I may be a little biased. But still, they're awesome and never fail to bring the bar up in alt. rock.

point of 4'33" is that there is no silence.
