If we Earthlings were to pick just one rock band’s recordings to compete against those by rock groups from other planets for the title of Greatest Rock Band in the Universe (suspend disbelief, please), I think there is only one band we could possibly choose: Led Zeppelin.
Sure, The Beatles and The Stones and U2 and Queen and Pink Floyd and so many others have produced lots of great music over the decades. But none can compete with the likes of Zep’s Stairway to Heaven and Kashmir.
Simply put, Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band this planet has ever produced, and I have no doubt that its recordings would be judged the greatest in the universe . . .
You agree, yes?

Personally I would pick CCR and being 69 years old I actually remember all of them

Zeppelin may have made some great tunes…but… The Stones have touched humanity with great songs that we still know the words to and can sing along… I just can’t get no!

I’d still have to stick with Pink Floyd.

Muah! I see what you did there. You’re trying to stir it. Not playing. So there.
Oh alright. Hendrix? Clapton? Jack White (White Stripes)? Who who cares?

In any case if it weren’t for the Mississippi delta none of them would be where they got. For one of the poorest and violent States of the USA it’s influence is deep. The juk(e) shacks are still there and still alive and well. Let’s get serious about the sources :):):):):);););););)

Yes, of course the Delta was the birthplace and parents of the great music, but, Wayne is more famous than his Dad, Walter Gretzky.

My point: But Wayne wouldn’t exist without his Dad. Ask him |D

Beethoven. Although doesn’t technically meet your criteria, as he was a composer, not a band.

Dis you mean, like, Roll Over Beethoven as sung by The Beatles? Yes, that must be what you meant. So, your pick for greatest rock band would be The Beatles, right?
