to ask for musicians who changed music?

[Carmana]

DSD (7) and I have been watching music videos for the past 20 mins.

So far I've showed her Elvis, Queen, MJ, Aretha Franklin and The Beatles.

Can anyone name a few more for me? I've drawn a blank!

Buddy Holly

Elvis

Jack White
David Sylvian,
Buddy Rich,
Keith moon,
Jimi Hendrix,
Louis Armstrong,
Ian Anderson,
Robert plant,
Eric Clapton,
Zutti singleton

Bands
White stripes,
Pink Floyd
The oh sees
The Beatles
The kinks
Led Zeppelin
Sonic youth
Japan
Jethro Tull,
Metallica
Bowie
Rage against the machine
The Dead Kennedys
The sex pistols
Blondie
Bauhaus

DH says Willie Dixon.

Charlie Parker

Led Zeppelin.....without a doubt.

Eddie Cochran

Dancing in the dark _ Bruce Springsteen!

Kraftwerk
Joy Divison
Robert Johnson

Pink Floyd
The specials
Bob Dylan
The Smiths

Bach. Beethoven. Stravinsky. Schoenberg.

If we’re talking about modern popular music, most of it is just variations on Robert Johnson.

I apologise if he has been mentioned already - Jimi Hendrix

Dr Dre
Daft Punk
Norman Cook
Goldie

I agree with a lot of those already mentioned. Then there is
ZZ Top, because they made Texas Blues mainstream.
Bonnie Raitt, because she is all round talented and can do many different styles well.
RUN DMC, because they made rap music, that really flowed and therefore made rap more mainstream.
Yngwie Malmsteen, because he showed what a classically trained guitarist can do with an electrical guitar.
Adele, because she is a singer and a storyteller at the same time.

Boethius? Pope Gregory? Guido d'Arezzo?

Then a load of composers but perhaps most significantly JS Bach and Mozart.

Then Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington.

Then Chuck Berry.

Then a whole host of pop artists, the most crucial and influential of which are The Beatles.

Prince and Madonna.

Oh, and nobody more important than the Kraftwerk guys.

After DH was singing 'Friday I'm in Love' this morning, I ended up showing photos of Robert Smith to DD. Apparently he's very pretty and she loved his makeup

Bob Dylan

Ian Dury, after which it was OK not to sing in an American accent.

ABBA
Madonna
Spice Girls
Eminem
Calvin Harris

The Ramones.

In the 70s, rock became overblown, pretentious and self-indulgent. The Ramones were among the original punks who stuck two fingers up to all that stuff.

Bob Marley
The Kinks
John lee hooker
Mozart
Prince
Bowie

Forallthesaints loads of British singers sang in a British accent before Ian Drury - Bowie, Syd Barrett, Steve Marriot, The kinks ...

Od probably add mobie too

Billie holliday

George Michael
