Name three of yours the most favourite drummers
Bun E. Carlos, Clem Burke, and whoever that guy was who used to play drums for Big Black are three of mine the most favorite drummers.

Who is your overall favorite guitarist?

what are your favorite movie soundtracks.
Theduke,Your nomination of Bernard Hermann is spot on. While I put Curtis Mayfield's Superfly, as far as film soundtracks go, on a list of one; with regard to film scores in particular, Bernard Hermann is alone at the top. His music for Vertigo (a...

Tok20000,Simon and Garfunkel were, as you are no doubt aware, more than good. However, it was Paul Simon who got the songwriting credit.
