oh and Bernstein. It's going to be an expanded Mount Rushmore!

yes indeed

for starters, I'll go with Beethoven, Mahler, Duke Ellington and Willie Nelson...

And Israel Kamakawiwo’ole.

Cept Mahina's

Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Elvis

I'd also accept Aretha, John Fogerty, or Prince, to name a few. The only one I say is 100% there is Bob.

So THERE!

I’ll see yours and raise you Stevie Ray Vaughan, Derek Trucks, and Glenn Frey.

Edit: Or instead of Slash, Eddie Van Halen

I could do this all day

All day indeed!

Which is funny because I strangely didn't realize that until pretty recently myself ... and I'm quite a music trivia buff ... so we're both recently surprised to discover this factoid!

I like Sheryl Crow but she's not worthy of any Rushmore. If we're going along those lines ... I gotta go with Stevie Nicks or Carole King.

So, okay, after further consideration, wherein I can only pick 4 ... given the gravity of the award at hand ...

Bob Dylan, Elvis, Aretha, Jerry Garcia

Ya know, I also really want Otis Redding on there, but I can't replace the people above. We can't have all guys, and they can't all be white, so ...

And return it to the earth.
