This is why these people make this lists - to stir interest and controversy. And everyone gets all hyped up about who should be where, which is exactly what they want. It's a real cheap and easy method of putting out a product. All the music magazines do this when things are slow and they don't have any good interviews.
It's all a matter of personal taste. As inferred, you can't have a person who is a guitar player or who concentrates on guitar driven music with the same viewpoint as a singer, a drummer, a keyboard player, a critic, or a fan of a particular genre.
Also, people who do not know older bands and are more familiar with newer stuff will almost always relate to what they know.
It's always fun to listen to opinions though!
My solution: convert the whole country to communism and let you only listen to the propaganda broadcasts, no music at all.
