UConn James Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Jeff Buckley -- fabulous voice ranging seven octaves. "Hallelujah." I don't care what you say about Nirvana; "Grace" was *the* debut of the '90s. John Denver -- PBS tribute/concert special awhile back hooked me on a guy I previously thought was a little fruity, but he really loved the music. "Sunshine On My Shoulders" Buddy Holly -- I'd be interested to hear what he'd do with today's equipment, etc. He had a lot of great tunes in a short time. Jim Croce -- I pop the box set in frequently. He's the best songwriter- singer I can think of.
Buftex Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Oh definitely Hank Williams Sr and Gram Parsons.....
Sound_n_Fury Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 1------Duane Allman 1a-----SRV Honorable Mentions: Ronnie Van Zant Bon Scott Jim Morrison Warren Zevon
stevestojan Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 I'll postdate this thread to 12/31/2005 and say mine would be Bob Dylan. I've seen Dylan live several times and he was amazing. The first one I went to was at UB and I was front row center. His guitarist, John Jackson, was absolutely amazing.
erynthered Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Mostly everybody said some of the ones I'd want to see again, or for the first time. Though I'll add one more: Janice Joplin, I'd like to party with her.
BF_in_Indiana Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Singers Ronnie Van Vant Shannon Hoon Layne Staley John Lennon Bon Scott Guitar Jimi Hendrix Randy Rhoads Bass Cliff Burton Drums John Bonham Keith Moon
Tux of Borg Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 That's a tough one... it would be a tie between SRV and Randy Rhodes.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Jerry, SRV, or Morrison. It it was composer, I'd go with VABills and say Beethoven.
tjwbills Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Bob Marley, no question about it. Genious melody, song writer, and performer
Ghost of BiB Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Rochester's own, Mitch Miller. 367652[/snapback] Savannah's own...Johnny Mercer.
CBusBillsFan Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 I'd have to say: Jeff Buckley Elliott Smith Duke Ellington
