i was hanging around with friends on vacation this summer, and this came up.
Who's yours? You can't name two and wiggle out of it. I'll tell you mine at Christmas.

We recently watched the 90-minute PBS show featuring Carole King and James Taylor. Wonderful show!
I have a new appreciation for Carole King.

Oh. I didn't intend to be restrictive. But I do that all the time, post and then go "Doh! Why did I say that?"
I'll tell you what the others I was with said. One said Dylan, another said Bill Evans, another said Beethoven. This was one of those discussions after the sun goes down, at the dinner table in June.

We saw James Taylor at a concert, live with the Baltimore Symphony. Oh, my! He was amazing! He sang old favorites of course, but did some Gershwin and other stuff. The best concert I ever attended.

Different from songwriters and performers, right?
For a musician of absolute musical ability: Eddie Van Halen.
