My God, are we on the same page here or what!
today I also did a search of the 100 greatest rock bands of all time!
I was trying to find where Def-Leppard stood, not too bad. Thanks for the post!

Pink Floyd hard rock? Are they on drugs or something?

It's true, there are some debatable bands in this list. I wouldn't say Yes is hardrock, nor Heart. Cheap Trick ..

Yannis · 03-18-2007, 06:39 PM

Pink Floyd is the greatest band of the century AFAIC. Dire Straits are second and Doors are third.
None of them is a Hard Rock band though.

They seem to have an odd definition of Hard Rock. I don't know many of the bands mentioned in the list but almost none of those I know can be classified as hard rock!

It's a strange definition for sure. I would consider Pantera or Nine Inch Nails as more heavy metal, rather than "hard rock". But then what is "hard rock"...

Must have been drunk when they made the list..lol
