hough I disagree about using Rolling Stone magazine's "Top 100 list to denote whether or not a musician is "good (though that may not be your intent)," I did find the Funkadelic song to be oddly interesting. I would have never guessed in a million years his music sounded like that. I've seen many young people wearing the shirts from Hot Topic with vibrant Warhol-style images of what appeared to be an Afro-clad male and figured the music would have a faster pace (a stereotype on my part :oops: due to the use of "high-energy" colors on the T-shirts)... It reminded me of a more Rock version of Sigur Rós. Even the unusually-written, thought-provoking lyrics (full of imagery, I might add) remind me of how the Icelandic band writes.


As a listener only, I think the most interesting finds are the ones discovered in unexpected places. Strange too when one finds something that to your mind shouldn't be there. Bands generally remain in their comfort zone, but occasionally they venture into another genre. Sometimes they put out a song better then most in that genre as if to say, 'If we played this s**t we would kick a** here too'. Parliment Funkadelic was of course a Funk band, and also had notables such as George Clinton & Bootsie Collins as well as Eddie Hazel, but could rock when they wanted too.

The first Rolling Stone top 100 Guitarists list in 2003 was an editor's pick, so subjective. But the update in 2011 was done by voter panel. Heres the list of voters below. I couldn't find any other list that had a comparable broad range of judges as well as so many voters.

THE VOTERS: Trey Anastasio, Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys), Brian Bell (Weezer), Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple), Carl Broemel (My Morning Jacket), James Burton, Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Gary Clark Jr., Billy Corgan, Steve Cropper, Dave Davies (The Kinks), Anthony DeCurtis (Contributing editor, Rolling Stone), Tom DeLonge (Blink-182), Rick Derringer, Luther Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars), Elliot Easton (The Cars), Melissa Etheridge, Don Felder (The Eagles), David Fricke (Senior writer, Rolling Stone), Peter Guralnick (Author), Kirk Hammett (Metallica), Albert Hammond Jr. (The Strokes), Warren Haynes (The Allman Brothers Band), Brian Hiatt (Senior writer, Rolling Stone), David Hidalgo (Los Lobos), Jim James (My Morning Jacket), Lenny Kravitz, Robby Krieger (The Doors), Jon Landau (Manager), Alex Lifeson (Rush), Nils Lofgren (The E Street Band), Mick Mars (Mötley Crüe), Doug Martsch (Built to Spill), J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.), Brian May, Mike McCready (Pearl Jam), Roger McGuinn (The Byrds), Scotty Moore, Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth), Tom Morello, Dave Mustaine (Megadeth), Brendan O’Brien (Producer), Joe Perry, Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Robbie Robertson, Rich Robinson (The Black Crowes), Carlos Santana, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Marnie Stern, Stephen Stills, Andy Summers, Mick Taylor, Susan Tedeschi, Vieux Farka Touré, Derek Trucks, Eddie Van Halen, Joe Walsh, Nancy Wilson (Heart)

From a Funk band playing Rock... to a Classic Jazz Fusion Band playing Funk (and even a few measures of Disco 8O )
