          Oh no thank you. I prefer my men with a bit more man to them. And Young ain't young enough ;)

    I couldn't tell you for sure. I can only tell you what my preference is. It's Kurt Cobain for me. Bit of a narky sod, but he had an aura. I could say exactly the same thing about John Lennon.

    Pretty commercial and narrow selection I'd say.

    What about Sinatra???

    None of those listed have his kind of money, power, or downright coolness.

    The one who made the best, most ground-breaking and heart-breaking music was, in my opinion, Kurt Cobain.

    Jimmy Page, Van Halen and Hendrix were the best musicians in my opinion.

    1. Cobain was/is a very talented musician, though I do prefer Layne Staley.

    2. Hendrix was/is very good as well. There are so many positive feelings "Castles Made of Sand" (among other songs) forces through my body.

    Are these people or groups in the same genre? Michael Jackson is the best entertainer of all time, in my opinion.

    As far as rock & rollers are concerned, what about Stevie Ray Vaughan?

    Best guitarist ever.

    Jeff Healey or Ronnie Van Zant, and the one with the most soul (second to Hendrix) was Elmore James.

    Edward Van Halen is not only a great guitar player, he is also incredible piano player, and he also plays drums.
