Pearl Jam

Pearl Jam was one of the most iconic grunge bands of all time. They have also created probably the greatest grunge album of all time. Their lead singer is Eddie Vedder and he has a  voice that was never heard before and never will be heard again. It was a very deep voice and he could go from very soft and gentle to having a yelling battle with the microphone without even thinking about it. My favorite Pearl Jam songs include Alive, Yellow Ledbetter, Better Man, and Daughter. 
Eddie Vedder was born and raised in Chicago until his high school years, when he moved to San Diego with his mom. He didn't have the greatest childhood, as he thought that his step-dad was his really dad until he was around thirteen. He formed Pearl Jam with his best friend Mike McCreedy and it was history from their. Pearl Jam's biggest competitor was Nirvana.
PEARL JAM!!!!!

Jimi Hendrix

Jimi Hendrix was undoubtedly the best guitarist of all time. If I could use one word to describe him it would probably be innovator. He inspired a generation of guitarists. Jimi Hendrix really created a sound that was never heard before him and never will be heard again.
Hendrix was born November 27th, 1942 in Seattle, Washington. He started playing acoustic in his early teen years and once he mastered it, his dad got him an electric, in what would be his ultimate weapon of choice. He got drafted into the military, where he played guitar. After he got out he moved around a lot, but eventually formed the Jimi Hendrix Experience, his most successful band.
Once again, Hendrix was the best since he started and always will be. Unfortunately, he died when he was only 27 in London from drug and alcohol abuse.

Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin is one of the most iconic rock groups in the whole world. The band is known as a super band, or  a band comprised of four amazing musicians before they were even together, a band not made of average players, but of all the best players. The lead singer of the band is Robert Plant. John Bonham was on the drums until he died later of drinking problems. John Paul Jones played the bass and keyboard. Last, but definitely not least was Jimmy Page, one of my personal favorites. Page played in many famous bands before Led Zeppelin including the Yardbirds with Jeff Beck. As a child he was a prodigy on the guitar and well known by fellow englishman. All members of Led Zeppelin originated in England and were a super big hit in America. Led Zeppelin loved American blues growing up and somewhat turned it into something even better that everyone loved. They have probably the second best guitarist of all time and just my favorite rock band ever. Long live Led Zeppelin.

The Grateful Dead

The Grateful Dead is a relatively new band to me. They were just introduced to me by my dad and his friend, and I've been listening to them constantly. The Grateful Dead has a wide range of genre's, but most noticeably they are a rock group. They also feature bluegrass, folk, and psychedelic in their music. The members of the band are Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Mickey Hart, Ron McKernan, and Robert Hunter. Their most notable member was Jerry Garcia, who was one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Some of my favorite songs include Friend of the Devil and Ripple. The Grateful Dead had a wide range of followers who were also known as dead heads. These were people that grew out their hair, ran away from home, and carried guitars with them everywhere. Many people will refer to them as hippies.
