Most influential Individual in Music

[Samiiee]

oh, without question :thurab:

[seyton manning]

this could go on for a while, causing problems...As there is no one idividual musican/artist that be classed as most inflential. You gotta look at it from genre, individually (who people think), talent (musically and vocal) and also which era they were around, like Mozart completly turned music on its head, but the same can be said about: Dylan, Cash, Cobain, Dimebag, Randy Rhodes, The Who, Sting, Paul Weller etc etc

Without A Doubt For Me It's Got To Be Berry Gordy, Founder Of Tamla Motown.
I Think That Tamla Changed Not Only The Face Of The Recording World, By Introducing Some Of The Greatest Singers And Songwriters That Have Ever Lived: Through Berry Gordy The Culture Of Society Began To Change, Albeit Slowly, To One Of More Tolerance Amongst Different Races Of People;Changes That Are Still Continuing Today.

I know what type of music they did.. but they were not a disco pop band.. but they did have a disco song.. and even they hated it..

Fuck, I forgot about Dylan, definately as influential as Holly.

I don't know man. The thread title is Most influential, not Most Innovative.
