	maybe a little more time, besides that a good quiz.

	If I'm not mistaken, The Clash have artist (28), album (8) and song (15)

	envelopeshat:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 03:30 GMT		1 point
	Okay, I'll adjust the clock. How's twelve minutes? @king, thanks for catching that, I overlooked them on the song list. I'll add them. Thanks guys

	A couple artist numbers were off by one or two, just fixed it.

	I think Pink Floyd should be there too: Artist(51), album(43), Guitarist (82)

	Consider adding bonus answers for bands who do not hit all three lists, but may repeat in a category. Example Derek and the Dominos with Eric Clapton and Duane Allman (Guitar 4 and 2) and Layla (Song 27).

	I guess I'll have to do some research, but I'm really surprised that the White Stripes didn't make it.

	cgrapes429:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 17:04 GMT		1 point
	Seeing that "Seven Nation Army" is #140 on Acclaimed Music, I thought it would surely make the RS list, but it did not...

	Does Mick Ronson's guitar work for David Bowie not count?

	Also, accept Muddy Waters' last name.

	leviper:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 20:06 GMT		2 points
	Sly and the Family Stone are on the Singers, Albums, and Artists lists.

	listyguy:	Sep 28th, 2011 at 21:54 GMT		1 point
	A few I know for a fact you're missing: Paul Mccartney/Wings (Band on the Run on albums list, Maybe I'm Amazed on songs list, Maca on singers list), Queen (Two songs, A Night at the Opera, Fredie on siners list, Brian May on guitarists list), Pink Floyd (Dark Side in top 50 on songs list, 3 songs, Gilmour and Waters on respective lists), Sly and the Family Stone (6 songs, 4 albums, on artists list), and countless others who I'm not going to waste my time naming. On top of that, you don't all the aspects for certain artists (GNR has 3 songs on list, Radoihead 2, etc.).

	Hey guys, I'll look into all of those. @KU (I'm a Jayhawk too!) I thought about that and also those who had songs or albums just over 100 (as those were 500 Greatest lists) @Leviper - I debated this, but I don't think "Waters" really qualifies as a last name in "Muddy Waters," as it's a stage name shortened to "Muddy." Should I accept Muddy? As for Mick Ronson, I only counted band members not session players. It's a gray area with that one, because he was more than a session player but "David Bowie" isn't really a band per se, so he can't be a member. I'm open to other opinions on that.

	one more @ listguy, in order to make it more readable, I only put the band's highest position on each list in parentheses, as otherwise, the Beatles entry, for example would be very difficult to read since they have so many entries on the albums list and songs list. The column is labeled as such.

	envelopeshat:	Sep 30th, 2011 at 03:01 GMT		1 point
	Pink Floyd, Sly Stone and Queen have been added, sorry about that! I can check again but I really do think that's everyone. Those are the only missing ones I saw. Paul McCartney/Wings are nowhere near the top 100 on albums or songs. Sorry if there was any confusion about this: the published RS album and song lists were 500 each, but this quiz only counts top 100 Still weighing Bowie/Ronson question...

	leviper:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 22:54 GMT		1 point
	According to the new list, Bruce Springsteen should be included on the guitarist list too.
