Greatest American Musician Of All Time Died Today...

[low_fidelity]

Alex Chilton, lead singer of the greatest American band of all time died today. I don't care if you disagree, he was the greatest singer/ songwriter of all time. Their music has been covered by Wilco, The Whiskeytown, Teenage Fanclub, and Paul Westerberg of The Replacements wrote a song about Alex Chilton. This is just for a little remembrance of him.

the subjectivity of this thread is mind bottling

 

[An10a_Eng]

I personally think Bob Dylan and/or McCartney/Lennon are the greatest songwriters of all-time, but I respect your opinion. RIP.

do you really think the greatest american musician was a singer, HA.
Singers wouldn't be shit without musicians, and the best musician in american is history could be so many people for instance
Louis ArmstrongCharlie ParkerMiles Davis(you can name any jazz great)
Stevie Ray VaughnJerryTreyTom MorelloMuddy Waters(all the great rock guitarists)
Stevie wonderMicheal Jackson

My point is that the list is huge, and whoever said it was opinion was right

(but you really picked a singer??)

 

[derbski]

did you just say mind bottling?

Yeah, like it takes your mind and bottles it up.

[bryant]

Thats a big ass polar bear, thats all i can say.

 

[ElbridgeGerry]

Better than Chuck Berry? I think not.

Think of all the British invasion guys, most notably the Beatles. Who did they have as inspiration? Chuck Berry and Elvis.

 

[theabortionator]

I wouldn't call him the greatest american musician of all time, but still sad day. Saw it on jambase earlier today.

 

[JosephStalin]

yeap

 

[ElbridgeGerry]

How do you not put Chuck Berry on there?

Do you kids not know who Chuck Berry is!?

 

[i.am.a.skier.]

He's died atleast 50 times, didnt you know?

 

[MADDECENT]

[low_fidelity]

hahahahahahah because you haven't heard of him he isnt good????

 

[Benson23]

sweet man, never heard of him and its not huge on the news right now so im assuming he was your personal favourite not the "Greatest American Musician Of All Time Died Today" with caps for each word

[ElbridgeGerry]

There's probably a reason he hasn't heard of him...

 

[low_fidelity]

because he most likely listens to the music presented right in front of him on a silver plater
