These lists are hard to take seriously, we all have our personal favorites- mine- NRBQ- best band ever
Bob Dylan- best songwriter
Van Morrison- personal favorite
Beatles, Clapton.....everybody else
My favorite "Roots" of Rock'n'Roll- Louis Prima/Sam Butera
Smiley Lewis
Big Joe Turner- check out this cd- awesome!

I knew I could count on a kindred spirit.

Big Joe Turner is smoking. Elmore James would be in my top 10, though he is theoretically the blues.
