The Kinks definitely deserve some respect- they've been making the so-called grunge sound since the mid '60's. I wuld have to add Steely Dan to the list and give an honorable mention to Procol Harum, who have few equals when it comes to combining a classical-Baroque sound with rock. I wonder if Queen was influenced by them a bit.
