Honorable mention for best: Howlin' Wolf
Honorable mention for worst: Hole
Honorable mention for worst: Hole
Heart's first 3-4 albums were pretty good but by the time MTV rolled around and they morphed into a pseudo-hair band, their songs got too poppy schloppy. Don't get me wrong, Ann and Nancy looked damn good in those videos but the songs were lame compared to Barracuda.
Best: Hootie and the Blowfish
Worst: Hannah Montana
(Ok, yes, Hendrix is the true best, but I thought of Hootie yesterday, and I was putting it no matter what because I like Hootie, so deal with it)

Chalk it up to me being a 90's kid, but I really like Cracked Rear View. Could have been worse, could have put Hanson for best (not that I actually would have, just saying)
Not sure if this counts today, but, do you like Huey Lewis and the News?
Best: The Highwaymen, The Head and The Heart, Holy Ghost Tent Revival
Worst: Husker Du, The Human League
Worst: Husker Du, The Human League
Best: Hendrix, Huey Lewis and the News (not sure if this should be H or L since it is a name but also kind of a band name), Heart
People will make fun of Huey Lewis and Heart but I couldn't care less. They have some good stuff.
Can't really think of a worst.

Nah, I legit like Huey Lewis and the News, I was like you, not sure if they counted today, but I thought since it was a band name that it could sneak in.
I liked it initially but it got so much freaking airplay that i can't listen to it ever again.
That's fair, I've had that happen with a number of songs/artists.
Worst one hit (or should I say one shit wonder)... Rupert Holmes "Pina Colada Song".
Might be unpopular given the board's general feelings on country, but Merle Haggard is pretty great as well
I like some of that country. It is basically everything in the last 20 years or so that I think is awful.
Seriously, I get it... some of you dudes don't give a rat for the classic rock (ahem, THN).
I'm a big fan of Huey Lewis and The News. Love their stuff. Sports was their best album but this is my favorite song of theirs.
Merle is a legend. Admittedly, I don't have much of his solo stuff but his Pancho and Lefty album with Willie is awesome.
I don't think she's been mentioned yet, but I think Lauryn Hill deserves a shoutout.
I couldn't tell Eric Church from Jason Aldean or whatever as far as mainstream country goes, but I listen to Outlaw Country on Sirius XM in my truck all the time and I really like that. Lot of Waylon ,Merle, Willie, Jerry Jeff Walker, Ray Wylie Hubbard, but newer people too like James McMurtry, John Fulbright, Hayes Carll, Jason Isbell. Some of you guys may like some of it.

Worst: Hard to argue with Hanson, even if they had one clever video with a Titanic tie-in

One of my favorite bands from my high school and college years was The Hooters.
If you aren't familiar with them, they have nothing to do with the restaurant.
