Based upon fan reaction and sales you can't argue with Elvis Presley.

True, very true. But, I'm not going by any of that, Mr. chop.

I'm going by musicianship and creativity with this bold selection.

OK then... Elton John

Jerry Lee is a very nice choice. But, like Elvis, falls short in the musicianship category.

It's understandable though, since he was hampered by alcohol and that incessant groin itch.

A true challenger there, Mr. MOhillbilly. Madman Across The Water was a breakthrough album in the day.

Pretty darn good choice there.

Definately, Mr. ZepSinger. He might have made my list at 1 or 2 had his career been longer.

I read somewhere that he was considering cutting a fusion rock/jazz album just before he died. That would have been interesting.

His best work wasn't as a solo artist, IMO.

Any list should also include Kate Bush, I think.

She has the talent of 12 or so Bob Segers.
