Anytime someone remembers my man Stevie Ray, it makes my day. I saw him & Double Trouble in '89. That concert still touches my soul.
I saw Freddie M. & the boys twice. I saw The Man in Black once. Brad Delp of Boston fame hasn't been mentioned. I thinks it's great that everyone has mentioned all of these musical artist, but my question to you would be; which of the many mentioned actually touched you where you live? |

Bob Marley
Peter Tosh Bogle General Echo Great artists all murdered before their time. Given time, I'll remember some more reggae greats. They all tend to die a bit young. |

Wow! SO many I want to list; many of my very favs have already been named. All of the following have bee SO incredibly formative to my life. Undoubtedly, I'll need to revisit w/ those I forget in my haste. ...
 ... Some of those I believe that are yet unheralded(?), that I'll apply a lil rapid~fire listing, include but are not limited to:
Les Paul John Coltraine Thelonius Monk Etta James Gram Parsons Townes Van Zandt ...  ... my brotha ...
Lowell George Lightnin' Hopkins Mississippi John Hurt Otis Spann Sonny Boy Williamson(yes, 1 and 2) Junior Well Big Joe Williams Charlie Patton Elizabeth Cotten Scott Joplin Buddy Guy Louis Prima Louis Armstrong Edith Piaf Dusty Springfield Peggy Lee Dinah Washington Benny Goodman Glenn Miller Artie Shaw Robert Johnson Leadbelly Screamin' Jay Hawkins Spike Jones Bob Wills Hank Williams Bill Munroe Sam Cooke Eddy Arnold Nick Drake Joe Strummer Buddy Miles Dicky Betts Duane Allman Peter Green Janis Joplin Vivaldi Lizst Beethoven Tchaikovsky Hmmmmmmmmm ...  ... Then, I'd echo some of my other deceased favs I believe were all already saluted in this thread:
Mozart John Lennon George Harrison Stevie Ray Vaughn ... ... My brotha ...
Hendrix Jim Morrison Johnny Cash Patsy Cline Nat King Cole Frank Sinatra Billie Holiday Roger Miller Bing Crosby Nina Simone Miles Davis Marvin Gaye Otis Redding Howlin' Wolf Willie Dixon Billy Preston Muddy Zappa Robert Palmer Kurt Cobain John Bonham Freddie Mercury Marc Bolan Mike Bloomfield Keith Moon John Entwhistle Richard Manuel Layne Staley ... There are so many more ...
... Would be so fine to have them ALL chartin' as contemporaries in the now; what sound!!! ...

OMG! There will never be enough caffeine to get me through this thread! All the best are dead, far outnumbering those still pluggin' and chuggin'! I could do a great jazz masters and another blues masters and still another great composers thread, and I'd never get done with those 3 threads alone!!!
 Here's some greats that haven't been named yet to start:
Charlie Parker Son House Jaco Pastorius Dizzy Gillespie Brahms Borodin Schubert DeBussey Vaughner Hector Berlioz Rashid Ali (he just died, one of John Coltraine's best drummers) Elvin Jones Mitch Mitchell Ron Ashton Jimmy Cobb Charles Mingus Eric Dolphy This could take a year and is giving me a headache! May they all RIP, and Thank God fer vinyl!!! 
PS -  - Dancere just asked me to correct her listin'Buddy Guy, seeing as he just finished a big tour and is very much above ground breathing! Still alive and well, oh yeah!
