It was really hard not to say anything mean about this list. Being a dick to new members is not cool after all.

I think music is catered to opinion but end of the day I do really think older generations artists definitely have more a social impact than the average artists of today

Thank 60s artists. Before rock hit in the 50s, popular music wasn't the money making institution it is now. Then the 50s and 60s hit, the Depression was over, and all of a sudden an entirely new group of people (middle class adolescents) had money to spend on music and all of a sudden record companies were making money hand over fist. Enter disco when the record companies first realized how to manufacture music for mass consumption, enter the next few decades when they slowly managed to perfect their formulas, and record companies bought other record companies to the point that their was damn near a monopoly on popular music companies, AND BOOM. You get the modern system of a few companies using the same formulas to produce the same music, to the point that the radio is entirely useless to find new music that isn't formulaic.

Now you just have to put actual effort into discovering music. Sorry that you have to work.

What makes this interesting for me is the power of the known versus the unknown. Do I choose artists that are frozen in time with a known catalogue or do I choose artists that are still releasing material with an unknown catalogue?

The other thing that weighs are artists with small catalogues, size matters.

I guess we'll split the difference between known and unknown.

Known Catalogue
Mott The Hoople
Television
Queen
The Beatles
Harry Nilsson

Unknown Catalogue
Dropkick Murphys
Todd Rundgren
Alice Cooper
The Pink Spiders
Sparks or Nick Lowe...flip a coin.

There are several people that could easily sneak in if asked on a different day.

^^^ The last thing that you said there is so true. My list wasn't easy to make because there are other singers who aren't here anymore that I am a huge fan of: Toby Keith and Joe Diffie. This duet was done sometime after Joe's passing, and it also includes newer singer Luke Combs.

God bless you and Luke always!!!

P.S. This is my earliest memory of Joe singing that song. I was almost ten years old then, but I was blown away then and to this day, I still am.
