Would you agree or disagree with these statements about bands and artists?

I don't necessarily agree with these. They're just statements I generally hear

1) The only reason people listen to Journey is because of Steve Perry

2) Black Sabbath were only good with Ozzy

3) Technically speaking, Eric Clapton is a far superior guitarist than Jimi Hendrix

4) Bruce Springsteen is far better live than he is in the studio

5) Dave Grohl is a far better musician than Kurt could ever be

6) Of all the tragedies surrounding rock stars, Syd Barrett was the most tragic of them all

7) Billy Joel is the least disliked musician around

8) Queen's music was so diverse in sound, that they can't actually be labeled as any sort of genre except for music.

9) Rush is the most talented group of musicians that ever became a band together

10) The Clash outgrew punk by London Calling
