But The Doors suck...Pink Floyd is just mediocre. Nothing great about their sound or style.

Man, The Doors are the American face of the psychedelic movement of the 60's and the band was built around Morrison's poetry. I admit that their music might not have been incredibly complex but you can't deny their influence or their unique sound and lyrics.
And Pink Floyd. If you really believe that there is "nothing great about their sound and style" then I truly pity you. NOBODY sounds like Pink Floyd and that is the point. They are 100% original and their sound is out of this world. Unlike The Stones who ripped off virtually everything from The Blues to The Beatles Pink Floyd are truly and unashamedly unique.
It all about originality.
