Top 4 living North American musicians couch sale
Comments

I can get behind Paul Simon.
We can hopefully agree to disagree on Dylan and Young - I don't put them in the same universe/plane of existence as Brian Wilson. I can think of 5 living "musicians" I would pay to see instead of those two.
But - I see we both picked Sloop John B. We have common ground.
-
Dylan and Lennon/McCartney are the most influential songwriters of the past 65 years, easily.
Jagger/Richards are by far my favorite, however.
-
By the way I missed the north American part
Definitely Neil Young
-
What are we using to define "musician" in this thread?
-
Triangle and tambourine skills and above.
-
Does no one like Billy Joel?
I'm personally not sure how I'd rank them, since I appreciate the music from these guys but don't have strong feelings about order of rank. Dylan likely defaults to #1 of living Norte Americano musicians for me.
-
When it comes to music I lump the 51st state in with America. Closer to us than the Brits.
Plus Neil was essentially a LA musician as opposed to a Canadian one.
Neil certainly dominates Dylan in the 1970s bracket.
-
I love Billy Joel, but he's not anywhere close North America Mt Rushmore.
I give the nod to Paul Simon based on a 20 plus year run of commercial and artistic relevance running all the way from the Sounds of Silence through Graceland.
I'd be inclined to have Fogerty on here, but their time in the limelight was so short.
-
No love for Dwag David Foster?
-
This bored is old and white.
I vote for Eminem. I'm sure he can at least play the triangle.
