On a serious note, i put 2 things into consideration: Studio work and live work.  I dont need to explain these categories - basically cutting edge, innovative, epic studio albums; and quality of live performances.

Examples of top studio bands, but lacking live epicness: The Beatles, Talkingheads etc

Examples of Top live bands, but lacking studio epicness: Phish, Breakfast, Grateful Dead, etc

Bands with the whole package (best bands ever): Pink Floyd, Zed Zeppelin, Radiohead, etc.

Bands which are borderline epic in both categories: Genesis/Phil Collins, David Bowie, The Doors, The Who, Rolling Stones

Phish is just about the only jam band that could make a great album.
