Best is Dylan, worst in my opinion is Syd Barrett.
Syd`s lyrics are often a bit weak and inexplicable, it`s true, but then sometimes he comes up with images or lines like nobody else. I put him in my list of inspired lyricists for lines like these :
Quote:
And you`re rocking me backwards and you`re rocking towards
The red and yellow mane of a stallion horse.
-
Lime and limpid green, a second scene, the fight between the blue you once knew
Floating down, the sound resounds around the icy waters underground.
-
You and I in place, wasting time on dominoes.
A day so dark, so warm; life that comes to no harm.
You and I and dominoes - time goes by.
