Greatest Rock Artists Of All Time (Revision Version)

[ManPerson]

One Direction looks a tad bit high. It would be hard to argue that Giorgio Moroder doesn't clearly take acclaim and influence for instance.

I'd have The Pharcyde a bit higher. I'd clearly give them acclaim and influence over Hootie, for example, as well as acclaim and popularity over YMO.

How are PiL above Procol Harum? PH seem to take influence rather easily and popularity as well (in the UK it's close but the rest of the world seems to be a rather obvious PH win). I don't think PiL win acclaim comfortably enough to make up for that.
