My American (!) vocabulary is not enough to express my consternation about the list: America First. The provicinal one.

You can like it or not, ranking is with us. It is not a magic bullet that
produces order out of chaos, but it is not the product of some random
procedure.

Two of performers really stand out from the above selection: Beethoven and Michael Jackson – great music and great performances.
But for my generation Bach, Mozart etc are missing.
However, in relation to Peter Erdi’s book the real question is: how to define rules which gives large weight to real, heartbreaking music – like the “Leiermann” of Franz Schubert – instead of the nice ass of blond girls (which is equally enjoyable but not as a musical accomplishment).
Please do make some hints!
