Pere Ubu were the most original and important of the new wave bands. They were to the new wave what Jefferson Airplane had been to San Francisco acid rock and Pink Floyd to British psychedelic music. The eccentric personality of David Thomas dominates their career from beginning to end, although the group has also featured other musicians of great stature.

1- I looked at Wikipedia for "Deakin"
2- Sorry music has never been a big interest of mine,
I don't understand why I'm supposed to know an artist who is never played on the radio and no one I know has ever mentioned the name.
This is why I'm here, to know some historically significant artists.

he just means african drums i assume. which is true. african drums changed everything.

>>36199488
hard to argue with this

but there's no real way to answer this question factually. like, Django Reinhardt was responsible for the guitar becoming a lead instrument instead of part of the rhythm section, which in turn led to damn near every band on this list, but if you asked all the guitarists in all these bands if they learned guitar because of him or aspired to sound like him, they'd probably universally say they never heard of him, or at least not until after they had decided on/learned the guitar.

tl;dr, there's direct influence and there's the butterfly effect. which is more influential? what time span is your cut off?

I'm guessing there are no albums by Quintette du Hot Club de France but is there a particular collection you could recommend? Even just to get a historical context of what he contributed to music.

Louis Armstrong. Without him, the concept of an American "frontman" wouldn't likely exist.

>> No.36204100

Assuming you're talking about Post-1950s here, so just roll with it

Discussing the short term effects, the esoteric answer would be the Velvet Underground as the band who influenced the most face-value qualities of rock music

If you're talking about the rock musician who most influenced composition, it's Zappa

If you're talking about the artist who influenced western culture, it's the beatles, but that DOES NOT MAKE THEM GOOD MUSICIANS

If you're talking about who was the most original, it's the Residents
