Any glaring omissions? Personally I feel some artists could have had more songs. I don't have the book so I don't know the rules but you can tell many bands are just represented by their most famous song but not always their best (G'n'R, Clash, Ramones) Other's are more accurate (Reed, Bowie, Pop, Suicide, Bragg, PE). So it has been discussed elsewhere on the net, but what do the tper's think? It is what it is.
