I actually had to go back and re-check the list several times, but, sure enough, NO PINK FLOYD! Really? Roxy Music and Nine Inch Nails, but no Pink Floyd? This is an egregious omission. Also, although not as egregious an omission, the one group/artist that could have been included for their seminal ...Read More
The omission of Pink Floyd is truly amazing. And where is Queen? Abba? Pearl Jam? Billy Joel? Scorpions? Journey? Deep Purple? If I had owned Rolling Stone at the time this "Immortals" list was published, heads would have rolled.

Yes, Iwas also amazed that Pink Floyd wasn't on the list.
And Queen? Freddie Mercury was a talented vocalist a performer. But that doesn't always make up for their music. They have released really good albums and songs but have also released ones that aren't very good. And you have to look at their overall musical history.
Pearl Jam definetly deserved to be in the top 100 aswell.

Hey moron, The Beatles have the right to be fawned upon, they're the greatest band ever. you probably have no idea what you're talking about, as The Beatles were the greatest singers, songwriters, and musicians ever. They have not made one bad song as long as they've been around. I agree with you about pink floyd and billy joel, but don't smash the beatles, because they were the most groundbreaking and spectacular thing to ever happen to music.
