Liste ≡ Rock & Pop Bands R-S
Für Sie im Überblick: Größte Bands der Welt (R-S) in einer Liste.
Größte Bands der Welt gibt es – subjektiv betrachtet – viele. Denn jeder hat seinen ganz eigenen Musik-Geschmack, den er am liebsten hört. Für den einen ist z.B. Led Zeppelin die beste und größte Band der Welt und für den anderen wiederum sind es die Damen von The Supremes. Dazwischen liegen aber Welten, die wir mit dieser feinen Auswahl (des Taschenhirn-Teams) verbinden möchten.
Die blau markierten Alben gehören (laut Rolling Stone Magazin) zu den „TOP 100 Alben aller Zeiten“. Die # gibt die exakte Platzierung bekannt. Steht da also die Zahl #55, so rankt das Album auf dem 55. Platz. Die rötlich markierten Alben & Singles landeten in den deutschen Musik-Charts auf Platz 1.
