[DalTxHornFan 3130]

Interesting list.  It has a broader historical viewpoint than the Rolling Stone's rankings from a couple of months ago.

I still, for the life of me, cannot figure out how Rihana is top-10 selling artist of all time. I understand she's very popular. according to soundscan she's #9 just above pink floyd, and above the Stones, the Eagles, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Garth Brooks, U2, etc. 

[TexArcher 39064]

#40 Led Zeppelin

 

[Deej 77813]

They're no Mariah Carey.

[Macanudo 13318]

Herb fucking Alpert?

[Deej 77813]

 

[tbone_ 14442]

Is that based on sales or what?

[jimmyjazz 47147]

Useless list unless it's totally about $$$.

[Guest Lobo]

If it was just about $$$ (and even  then, we talking concerts or album sales or both?)....then Led Zeppelin would not be behind Janet Jackson and Herb Alpert.  

By the way, how pissed off is the Tijuana Brass this weekend not being even slightly mentioned?  "WE FUCKING MADE YOU, HERB!"  

[Hate 20247]

Did y'all see where Ray Charles was on this list??

Do they list the criteria for making this list anywhere?  Aside from all of the other issues with this list, I find it hard to believe that anyone would consider Rascal Flats a top 125 greatest artist of all time.
