All-time greatest/most talented.

[radhead]

Here is my pick for the greatest rock/pop performer of the last 50 plus years. I also think he is one of the best musical performers in recent history. He's a true performer in every sense of the word. Better than the Beatles, Elvis, or any other of the rock and roll greats.

I'm not alone in this opinion. Sam Phillips of Sun Records considered him the most talented musician he ever recorded with.

I'd vote for Michael Jackson...

Sam Phillips also said that Elvis Presley was the greatest Rock/Pop SINGER ever. He was never that impressed with Jerry Lee's voice.

Elvis was a great singer who could play a little piano and guitar. While Jerry Lee was a great Rock piano player who could do a little singing.

Comparing Elvis and Jerry Lee is pretty much apples and oranges, since one was primarily a singer and the other was mostly an instrumentalist.

I wouldn't call Jerry Lee Lewis an instrumentalist. He was really considered a singer by the general public.

Elvis was a great singer who could play a little piano and guitar. While Jerry Lee was a great Rock piano player who could do a little singing.

And Sir Elton Hercules John can be considered as both an instrumentalist and a singer. That's why I consider him to be the greatest musician since Mozart and England's greatest national treasure. We are fortunate to live in the same time period as he.

Elton John for sure and also I love John Lennon.

I think that Jimmy page is one of the most talented musicians of all time.

But then again, every member of Ledd Zeppelin were exceptional...

 

[peanutbutter12]

Queen, hands down.

I like Led Zeppelin. But I think the bandmembers owed their careers to Jimmy Page.

 

[radhead]

I like Elton John too. I hadn't even considered him, though. Amazing talent.

 

[HotRhymez]

My choice for most talented would go to Tupac, Nas, or Eminem...they have all made some pretty awesome songs with deep meaning and lyrical ability.

Jerry Lee Lewis became famous because of his PIANO PLAYING. Sam Phillips clearly stated long ago that his voice was NOT that good.

If Jerry Lee had never learned to play the piano, he would've been a NOBODY as a pure singer.

You're certainly entitled to your OPINION, just like the rest of us.
