Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #60

Marley -- Tantric's small contribution to rock music dents in comparision...
Louis -- Unlike many of her contemporaries, Pink actually has some musical talent. But compares to Louis...
Rick Springfield -- Never really got into Bright Eyes, though I do like Easy/Lucky/Free. Rick's kind of a guilty pleasure being a kid of the 80's...
Del Shannon -- You'd think being a kid of the 80's would have helped Sunglasses At Night Dude...
Womack --
Queens Of The Stone Age -- Josh Homme rocks, Holly Johnson scares me...
Love and Rockets -- Except "So Alive", never cared for their biggest hit...
Blondie ---

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #60

Bob Marley
Louis Armstrong
Bright Eyes

Blondie

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #60

#1 (34) Bob Marley
Okay, *how* the hell did Tantric qualify for this thing? Days of the New has a few good singles, then the lead singer decided he was Jim Morrison, so the leftovers form a by the numbers 'Less accessible Staind' group. Do they really have singles that got airplay?
#9 (546) Louis Armstrong
...Really?
#11 (674) Frankie Goes To Hollywood
Can't get into QoTSA at all.
#2 (95) Blondie

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #60

Bob Marley
Louis Armstrong
Bright Eyes
Del Shannon
Queens of the Stone Age (my favourite band)
Blondie

Slick, do you know who is the highest AM-ranked artist not included in your Tournament ?

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #60

#1 Bob Marley
#9 Louis Armstrong - Really don't care for Pink, so I'll vote for the other guy, whoever HE is.
#12 Bright Eyes
#4 Del Shannon
#3 Bobby Womack
#6 Queens of the Stone Age
#7 Seals & Crofts
#2 Blondie - Recently been getting into Parallel Lines. Fine, fun album, and makes me feel like Harry was maybe a little underrated as a vocalist.

Favorite this round - Satchmo
Favorite not voted for - Depends on my mood... could be Frankie Goes to Hollywood, could be Gary Puckett. Both are kinda creepy in different, but equally interesting ways.
