It's interesting that a question this broad has resulted in three of us mentioning The Velvet Underground. Not sure what to make of that.

The VU came up often when polling people the other night. Another big contender was Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

It can't not be the Crickets, though, if we're taking it as given that the Beatles are the most influential band in history.

The Crickets are a good call, for sure.
