Well 'greatest' is a silly way to describe any band, obviously. They're not revolutionising music. In the big scheme of things they aren't that significant. But when it comes to kicking back, I can think of few better soundtracks. I also like their fusion of mysticism with a kind of anarcho-collective spirit. This too isn't new (Amon Duul, Hawkwind, etc) but I can live with that.
