The Quest for the Top Rock Band Singers of All Time, with Guest Peter Scott Ruben

Welcome back to Pizza Quest!

This conversation is bound to tick off some folks, and everyone’s entitled to his or her own opinion, but our music Yoda, Peter Scott Ruben, is definitely not shy about his Mt. Rushmore of top rock band singers.  During his last visit we did the same for solo singers, from Frank Sinatra on down, but this time the criteria is for those who earned acclaim fronting rock bands (and I mean serious rock bands), not as soloists (even though some were superstars as soloists too). Some of Peter’s list may surprise you (I was), and some of his omissions may make you even more upset, but hey, this is rock and roll so getting riled up is part of the game. Tune in for a fun-filled hour as we dive back into the past, especially the golden era of the 1960’s and ’70’s, as we compile a top ten, and then a Mt. Rushmore, of the best of the best. Remember, it’s more about the quest than it is about the pizza, and today’s quest is rock and roll greatness (with a little pizza talk too), so jump on the magic bus and hang on for a wild ride!

Vision Statement

Pizza Quest is a site dedicated to the exploration of artisanship in all forms, wherever we find it, but especially through the literal and metaphorical image of pizza. As we share our own quest for the perfect pizza we invite all of you to join us and share your journeys too. We have discovered that you never know what engaging roads and side paths will reveal themselves on this quest, but we do know that there are many kindred spirits out there, passionate artisans, doing all sorts of amazing things. These are the stories we want to discover, and we invite you to jump on the proverbial bus and join us on this, our never ending pizza quest.
