The most influential/important bands of each decade

<< < (6/12) > >>

Thrillho:
But that one song, whilst essentially starting the trend, was just one song. Other hip-hop artists - Dr. Dre, for example - have had far more impact on the whole of hip-hop or R'n'B.

StaedlerMars:
I suppose it would have broken through eventually yeah.

BlahBlah:
This thread is severely lacking in The Fall. No Pavement without them.

Alex C:
Yeah, I'd put Public Enemy, Grandmaster Flash, NWA, Run DMC, Kool Herc, Rakim and Afrika Bambaataa as overall more influential than Sugerhill Gang, since they really did have just the one song and obviously didn't create it in a vacuum.

KharBevNor:
