hello and welcome.
The coolest band you mentioned was Captain Beefheart. I'm not saying they are better then the others, it's just don't hear much about them. I have this aversion for bands that are named drop ad nauseum, but I'm not questioning how talent they are, when I say that.
Thank you for not having Muddy Waters in your top ten, it's breathe of fresh air to see Howlin Wolf then Muddy Waters, but then again I would rather see Jimmy Smith or Wes Montgomery then
Miles, but hey it's your list - pretty cool list
David Bowie can be just as avant garde or weird as Zappa at times. I like reading about Zappa more so then listening to his music. When he got on his soap box and started bitchin about the Music Business, I can't put the book down, it's riveting.
Where The Ventures that instrumental band you were talking about being your fave?
