TBF, I reckon Hendrix received plenty of fanfare and still is doing so to this day.
His praise is WAY OTT as far as I am concerned. |

I feel we should form some form of RAB alliance. I just keep agreeing with you today |

The reason MJ sold so many albums was because he is bloody good. As far as pop music goes he was the best.
Nobody will come close to being THAT big again'"
I've no real gripe against Jacko he was the prince of POP, but to say Hendrix isn't a patch on Jacko in terms of talent is........well, I think your'e hurting real bad inside dude. |

Why? Hendrix was a genius guitarist but a crap singer and average songwriter.
Personally I feel Jackson had a few more strings to his bow. |

That's what makes music great, it's soooo subjective.
Anyway I didn't know Jacko played the fiddle . |

Lennon - big fanfare
Elvis - Huge news
Marvin Gaye (possibly!) - Fairly big news at the time
Theyr the only 3 dead blokes who match the talent of Jackson. Prince isn't dead yet.[/quoJ
Johnny Cash? - one of the most widely admired musical artists ever
Joe Strummer? - part of the greatest punk band ever (suspect thats open to discussion)
oh and Rob Collins of the Charlatans? well I was upset anyway

Like dancing. And Quincy Jones. Jackson/Jones will never be beaten in pop music |

Yeh exactly, as in most things in life, Music is a very subjective thing.

Of course there would. There was shed loads about Diana, Madonna would be no different. |

I heard the first one 10 minutes after getting into work this morning.
Can't say it bothers me to be honest, but I suspect that's more to do with my hatred for Political Correctness. |

There's no doubt Jackson was a greta pop singer & put out some great pop stuff with great musicians, if that's what turns you on. I prefer some of the Jackson 5 stuff, probably because the well known stuff has been played to death. But IMO he has done nothing in 20 years that has vaguely interested me. He had all the production & technology available to him & utilised it, but I doubt his later stuff will sound fresh in 40 years time, whcih is the difference between him & someone like Hendrix. Or Cash who was still producing classic stuff up to his death.
Keep the sick jokes coming, there is little in life I find beyond a sick joke.
