Topic: FORGET THE BEATLES & FORGET THE STONES

If you skip these bands, which band can claim to be the best band, the most complete band playing recognizable songs and versatility in what they bring on album or on stage.
MY LIST & ANSWER IS QUEEN = the most versatile band who dabbled in rock and roll, disco, heavy metal, progressive rock and opera.
I don't know if there is a better band.

This doesn't mean that bands as Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd aren't high on my list, but QUEEN got it all.
A fantastic frontman who could scream, the band playing hard rock.
AM I RIGHT OR WRONG? My opinion is confirmed by searching for a long time on the internet.
WHAT IS YOUR OPINION AND LIST?

Re: FORGET THE BEATLES & FORGET THE STONES

I Feel that Led Zeppelin is a more diverse band than Queen was,  They are mostly remembered for the Heavy Blues based rock,  but they were so much more.  They also dabbled in Country, Funk,  Folk, Celtic, Reggae, Classical, etc.  Zep also has had a bigger and longer lasting Influance on rock music.

Re: FORGET THE BEATLES & FORGET THE STONES

Maybe mixter, maybe. But you have to admit that they were oh so versatile, more than LED ZEPPELIN MY FAVORITE BAND, together with CCR, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd.
It isn't always subjective or objective, some people will say QUEEN, others ZEPPELIN or even other bands.
Queen reinvented themselves every album they made.
