    Greatest Band of All-time: Led Zeppelin

    Rock Band: Led Zeppelin

    Hip-Hop: XX

    Rap artist: XX

    Alternative Band: REM (one of the original alternative/college rock bands)

    Country: Johnny Cash

    Pop: Beatles

    Solo Singer/Songwriter: Elvis Presley

    Album: Led Zeppelin IV

    Let me just say this about Led Zeppelin IV:

    There are 8 tracks on this album and all of them are incredible just by themselves, never mind all of them combined on a single album. And if a rock fan included any of the 8 tracks on their top 100 list of greatest songs all time, nobody could really argue with it.

    Black Dog
    Rock and Roll
    Battle of Evermore
    Stairway to Heaven
    Misty Mountain Hop
    Four Sticks
    Going to California
    When the Levee Breaks
     
  12. If I make a list, should it be what I think is objectively the greatest, or what I would consider to be my favorite?
     
  13. 75% objective, 25% favorite. I wouldn't put Led Zeppelin in my personal top 5 list for bands/artists, but I can appreciate what they did and recognize their genius. (that top 5 list for me would be Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Santana, Pink Floyd and The Beatles)
     
  14. _Greatest Band of All-time: Avenged Sevenfold

    Rock/metal Band: A7X

    Hip-Hop: meh

    Rap artist: Eminem

    Alternative: Smashing Pumpkins

    Country: meh

    Pop: M. Jackson

    Solo Singer/Songwriter: Tom Waits

    Album: Waking The Fallen
