Most overrated band
Post Body

Who in your opinion is one of the most overrated bands of the 60’s and 70’s. For me, The Doors hands down. Morrison was an egotistical ass who may or may not show up for shows. The rest of the band mediocre at best. This is my opinion only.

This just barely fits in your timeline, but Bruce Springsteen. He's just not that good.

Actually three songs, I guess. I was thinking of God Only Knows.

Always heard that.

Agree. Critics go on and on about Pet Sounds, but I can't even make it through the whole album. Two really great sounds on it and the rest is just fluff, IMHO.

What's amazing is that they were considered on a par with the Beatles.

I remember him being on those covers. I grew up in the Deep South, and we were listening to Southern Rock bands. We didn't know who Springsteen was. But he was "The Boss," and so I went and bought one of his albums. Disappointing.

Fleetwood Mac is really hard to pigeonhole. It's basically at least 3 different bands. The Peter Green Era, the Bob Welch era, and Buckingham/Nicks. Maybe even one before Peter Green.

I won't disagree with that. I just don't think it has stood the test of time at all.

Meet John Doe is on my top 10 list.

John Doe's solo work is really great also.

Tunnel of Love was another decent record of his. The title track was a hit.

Music critics agree with you, for sure.

Yep. They went back and forth. When The Beatles released Sergeant Pepper, Brian Wilson tried to compete by recording Smile. Of course he had a massive breakdown in the middle of that.
