    The coolest rock star of the 70`s

    It`s been a while since we done one of these.

    You know the drill: vote `em off until only one remains.

    It`s only a bit of fun, remember.

    Don`t bother with "Where is so-and-so...".

    Only one band member per band and no members of CVH (You know which one I mean) to make it fair.

    Poll closes for round two at 21:30 GMT tomorrow night.

      I knew Freddie Mercury would steal that one.

        I`m voting for Sid Vicious.

        I only put him in so that I could vote him out.

                Probably not for the entire decade, but for a few year period, Peter Frampton was definitely up there....

                  I don't think some of you guys are reading the poll right.

                  This is another "elimination" poll.

                  (Might want to clarify the title, Mr. Badguy)

                  For the record, I voted off Keith Emerson. I never thought ELP were remotely "cool".

                    Out of that list, Lynott all the way.

                          It says "get rid of" right at the top of the poll.

                            Are you kidding?

                            In the 70`s, ELP were one of the most decadent rock bands in the world.

                            Like most of the progressive bands of the era, their influence has been buried by the post punk press.

                            I know it`s a question of personal taste but I view those guys as "artists" rather than mere "musicians".

                            Articulated lorries with their names on the roof, touring with an orchestra and entourage of 160 people (including a judo teacher), spinning pianos, two tonne steel drum kits, taking a side of a double album each leaving the other for band compositions, getting HR Giger (designer of the "Alien") to do your album cover, writing a concept album about an armoured Armadillo, Emerson`s keyboard removal man from hell routine, headlining the `74 California Jam above Black Sabbath and Deep Purple...

                            ...all of these things and more make ELP cool in my book.

                              Yeah, I fucked up but didn`t realize until I posted.

                              I will make the next round clearer.

                              Luckily, enough people here can read that we should get a proper result in the context of the poll.
