As a form of protest against his record label, Prince felt the need to abandon his moniker. In 1993, he adopted his logo, which he termed the "Love Symbol" and incorporates the glyphs for Mars (male) and Venus (female), as his actual -- and unpronounceable -- name. He even turned it into several custom guitars.Posted by Spinner Staff

Good list. You're forgetting Poco's running horse logo that was created by Phil Hartman who went on to fame on Saturday Night Live

I can't believe the Doors weren't on there. I thought they would be #1.
Brian Borbotat 2-18-2008
Cheap Trick, The Doors, Zeppelin are all good ones that were left out. What about America, BTO, Bad Company, B.O.C., Boston, Chicago, Def Leppard, ELO, Grand Funk, Meatloaf, Spinal Tap, and Thin Lizzy?

I think that the progressive rock band Asia's logo is a better representation of Roger Dean's talent than the Yes logo.
