I don't like crowning Kings or Queens of anything. There is an artist for every taste, and the way they resonate and have meaning for an individual is personal, not a contest. Still, Americans love to do this. Everything becomes a contest; who is number 1? I think it's a strange viewpoint, but it seems to be ingrained in the American DNA.
King Of contest...
Hi we all know that
Michael Jackson -- King of Pop
Elvis Presley -- King of R&R
Benny Goodman -- King of Swing
I nominate the following Kings and Queens:
Jascha Heifez -- King of Violin
John Medesky -- King of Hammond
BB King -- ya'll know!
Nat King Cole -- King of voice(or Frank Sinatra still not sure!)
Barbara Denerlain -- Queen of Hammond
Barbra Streisand(or Linda Ronstadt still not sure!) -- Queen of pop
Sara Brightman -- Queen of opera
Enrico Caruso -- King of opera and tenor
Not sure who to nominate as King of Symphony, but both turn my attention more than anyone else performing the same concerts: Arturo Toscanini vs. Georg Solti.
Share your kings, queens and enjoy the forum!
