  • For me Van Morrison is the giant!
    Although when I was young in the 70s I thought Elton John was everything ;-)
    But, there's so many others, like Tom Waits Mr Dylan and Neil Young... And, why not Lars Winnerbäck...

  • Jason Isbell. When a song writer can make a 54 Welshman cry you know he is doing something right.

  • Robert Hunter , the great great grandson of Robert Burns . He wrote or collaborated on many Grateful Dead Songs as well as with Bob Dylan and Bruce Hornsby. His most famous words perhaps would be. "What a long strange trip it's been". The "Wake of the Flood" album by the Dead contains some truly awesome work penned by him!

  • Pete Townshend is an incredible songwriter. I've always loved the fact that from as early as the first few singles, Townshend recorded demos of all his new songs. Primarily used to teach the other guys in the Who the new songs, he also used the demos as roadmaps and blueprints for the "real" recording​ in a big studio.

    He released 3 albums worth of those demos called "Scoop", "Another Scoop", "Scoop Vol. 3" and the excellent "Who's Next" demos are on the great "Lifehouse Chronicles" set. Hearing Townshend's take on those classic Who tracks that Roger Daltrey sang lead on is like hearing the song for the first time again.

    Townshend's always been a huge proponent of home recording so in addition to being an incredible gifted songwriter he's a great ambassador for all of us home studio cats today.

  • Not my favorite, but interesting documentary about Jason "Poo Bear" Boyd, writer of many many pop hits.

  • Jesus, this is Iggy
    Christ she is beautiful

  • Dean and Gene Ween

  • Neil Finn - a master of taking unconventional song structures and chords and making them sound like a simple little pop song. And great melodies to boot.

    There's an unverified quote out there claiming that, when asked how it felt to be the greatest living song writer, Paul McCartney replied "I don't know, you should ask Neil Finn."

  • If you really want to dig,

    It's an obvious one, but should be mentioned for the phenomenal influence he had on the next 3 generations of songwriters: Lou Reed.

    Just (finally) saw this picture from Mister Reed's last photo session (apparently). If clothes maketh the man, then lines surely maketh his face...

    That is such a great picture of The Man.

    my fave songwriters are naturally my fave bands/musicians:

    1.beatles/hendrix
    2. bowie/floyd
    3. roxy music/david byrne and talking heads

    modern day:

    ween
    malkmus
    tweedy

    Ferry's lyrics on the first 4 Roxy albums were the greatest being written at the time (by anyone not named Lou Reed)

    Ween are greatly underrated when it comes to the songwriting thing.

    " West Palm Beach, " by Palace is one of Will Oldham's finest moments, and I was an early fan. But at some point he kind of started believing his hype by think. Glad to see John Cale recognized. But no mention of Ray Davies? And on the other side of the coin, Chrissie Hynde?
    And we seem to have left out a few geniuses: Stevie Wonder.

    i love Siren and Manifesto too. i admit a drop off in consistency but Siren has two of my all time fave RM tunes on it.

    i forgot to mention my lifelong love of Prince. been into him since 1999 came out. i was 5. saw him at first avenue. probably the greatest nitch on my concert belt.

  • Thank you so much for whoever gave me Beeswing by Richard Thompson

  • Weird Al Yankovic is probably the finest song writer of this generation.
