The portion of the Beatles songs that Michael Jackson owns is valued at about 900 million dollars, and he doesn't even own many of the biggest hits.

Some may not like the Beatles, but a lot of musicians and many fans agree that they were a huge force and talent.

While I didnt read each list I've seen alot of good bands listed but havent seen one performer that shouldnt be forgotten as being influential.

How can any list  that includes the likes of the Beatles. Led Zep and such be complete without mentioning the one performer who as far as Im concerned is the true father of Heavy metal  &  Rock N Roll
that performer is

Chuck Berrry
I mean this dude was doing heavy stuff before anyone ever even came up with the word heavy metal
Classic example is "Johnny B Goode"
I mean if that song were released for the first time today it would still probably be a hit.
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
