And I'm the one that jaded you.
Only one I can think of off the bat, is Alice Cooper. I know there are plenty more though.

Not exactly rock, but definitely music artists -- Aretha Franklin and Diana Ross.

Don’t anyone give me any crap for not listing Madonna. She’s a great performance artist but her music is weak, simple minded and geared towards children concerned more about flash then substance. In short she’s not in the same league as those posted.

Hahaha, I just wanted to see your response. I voted Seger because his stuff has a lot more relevance to me than, say, an Aretha Franklin does, although, he's legitimacy great, as well.

Two serious omissions from this list. Marshall Mathers and Bill Robinson. Sorry...to late to add them.

Madonna was just an 80's pop princess, that was more sex then music.

Bob’s great. His music has got me laid more than anybody I listed. That counts a lot in my book.

I voted Bob Seger, but it was a coin toss between him and Alice Cooper.

Agreed. If she hadn’t of masturbated on stage in a wedding dress to an incredibly vapid song no one would have heard of her.

Still like him, but his music still makes me hurt inside to listen to.... my late husband was a musician and loved Seger's songs, and sang them like a boss.
