Those guys are gods.

Is not this thread all about perspective ?
Now even from the names above from CD, I PERSONALLY would not use Plant or even Daltry in the same sentence as Hendrix, Jagger, John or Lennon, but then yet again I also agree, because in my mind not even Marilyn Manson would rate on that "2nd's list" as rock stars IMHO, as would pretty much nobody except **maybe** Cobain.
The rappers redefined living and partying like rockstars, but in terms of longevity or influence over multiple generations ?
Not every household has even a RUN DMC album, but be sure someone, somewhere has something by the Stones.
