I wish the who never played the Super Bowl. They were so off and it takes something away from their legacy.
As for influential, I'd stack The Clash up against anyone. Listen to music today and you'll hear more Clash than Beatles or Who in it... Which is a bigger deal than in the past since so much is derivative these days and creativity is being pushed out of the spotlight.
And on the business side, nobody comes close to KISS. Their music was nothing compare to the other bands mentioned, but in a competition, if I had a choice between having Gene Simmons sell dog turd or anyone else sell anything else, I'd take Gene Simmons pretty much every time. That guy could market breast implants to nuns if you gave him a few minutes alone with them.
