    The Grateful Dead, by far.

    Jerry Garcia's noodling and off-key caterwauling is about as melodious as nails on a chalkboard.

    Not to mention the fan base of smelly hippies who follow them everywhere, smoking dope and selling peanut butter sandwiches. Get a job. Get a life. Get...over.....

      Elvis wasn't a great guitarist, but he sure as hell was a revolutionary performer.

      Radiohead. They're ok, and have some great songs, but, generally, they're overrated.

                That about sums it up. Just add Eric Johnson and SVR to that list and you about have it.

                  Agreed.

                      Elvis, The Rolling Stones, The Stone Roses and Led Zep, who are both quite good, but not good enough to warrent their status IMHO.

                      The Beatles are a very good band, but not, IMHO, the best band ever, as many seem to claim. Thus they are a bit overrated IMHO.

                      Classical music is incredibly complex, and very clever. Much harder to compose than pop music. Thus I wouldn't say it is overrated, although like Provost, I like a few pieces, the rest I don't both listening to.

                          This is only true because Django Reinhardt was technically Belgian.

                          Still, the French do a great job of appreciating a good musician, especially when it comes to jazz.

                              Most overrated band, The Rolling Stones (at least anything they released after about 1969 or 70).

                              Most overrated musician, Elvis.

                              Oh, and any rumours that Celene Dion is from Canada are false. She's not from Canada, she's never visited Canada, as a matter of fact she's never even heard of Canada.
