Tom Petty, etc.
“Overrated: Dave Matthews Band and Tom Petty — everything they do sounds the same.” (Jen Kramer)
“Tom Petty is a genius. His stuff does not all sound the same. But Dave Matthews is weak tea for sure.” (Michael Burr)
“Overrated: Oasis. Of all the “Next Beatles” that came out of England every three months, they were the most pretentious and ridiculously overhyped.
“Runner-up:
Fleetwood Mac. Two aging British blues players who kept changing band members until they finally hit the jackpot.” (Ric Studer)
