Your favourite musicians?

[HseagullsH]

I was posed this question the other day and it made me think.

I went with:

Alex James (Blur)
Thom Yorke (Radiohead)
Morrissey (The Smiths)

Who are yours and why?

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Rick J Jordan (Scooter).
Why? Because he's the musician behind my favourite band of all time, ever. He can play, literally, everything. Drums, keyboards, piano, bagpipes, flute, cowbell...

 

[BensGrandad]

Band of The Coldstream Guards!!.

 

[NMH]

Jeff Beck, Dave Grohl, Nils Lofgren, Stevie Wonder, Brian Jones, Paul Jones, Pete Townshend, Keith Moon, John Entwistle....
