Rick Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) I thought it could be a fun topic to find what other forum members' favorite music artists are. If you feel inclined to do so, list your favorites in these three categories: male artist, female artist, and band. Please, choose only one of each category. I know it can be tough, like trying to name only one favorite song/album, so think hard... Here's mine: Male artist: Johnny Cash (my overall favorite) Female artist: Linda Ronstadt Band: The Rolling Stones Edit: I just realized that it's probably not too hard to figure mine out, as Linda is my avatar, Johnny is in my sig, and The Stones are my background pic in my profile (plus Keef's in my sig as well)...

minermark Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Too many to list, just ask my neighbors. In the same day, from Brahms to Weezer, to Patsy Cline. Perhaps one reason, I don't get many neighbor visits, they wait long enough ill play their song. Last time Paul came over from across the street, I simply ask him his favorite song, hour and a half later his wife is at my front door wondering where her husband went. Quote

I heard a beautiful song this morning on my local PBS affiliate's jazz station on HD radio. I had no idea who it was, and as it turned out, it was Eva. It was just beautiful to my ears...
