As always, any feedback is appreciated. I will start at the top of my list next week, so look for it!
Can't wait to see what you do with this. For me, here's who I like!
ReplyDeleteBuddy Holly,
Elton John
Led Zeppelin (despite Plant's horrific lyrics)
Kinks (not even close!)
Lou!
CCR
Pete (easy!)
Police (love the Clash, but the Police were better)
Beach Boys (if it were CSNY, a lot tougher)
Neil!
Dylan (c'mon, are you being serious?)
Beatles (LOVE the Stones, listen to them more, but for songwriting, The Beatles set the bar).

Interesting picks thanks for the input - on some of these I don't even know how I'll vote yet - hopefully the point system will help me decide...
ReplyDeleteAnd this is about songwriting not who I like to listen to the most or which is my favorite - usually they are the same but maybe not always...
