This thread is to choose the one song that to you best expresses the depth of soul of your fave recording artist.
One song per artist - up to 10 selections for the sake of brevity!
Timeless musicality and artistry - the song that to you fully communicates all of the artist's brilliance. The one song you would recommend right now to someone unfamiliar with the artist.
(If you had to choose only one favorite track of an artist you most enjoy that conveys the talent, musicality and artistry fully - which song would you choose?). Note, the purpose of this thread is not necessarily to choose the one best track of the artist, but the best one to introduce that artist to someone!
To start this thread off,
Here Are My Choices:
James Taylor - Gorilla
John Lennon. - Working Class Hero
Robert Glasper with Eryka Badu - Maiysha (So Long)
Paul Simon - Getting Ready For Christmas Day. (Knockout Tune; my favorite Paul Simon song!)
Joni Mitchell: Trouble Child
Todd Rundgren - Can We Still Be Friends?
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
Alice Cooper - Generation Landslide
The Who - Who Are You?
Steely Dan. - Gaslighting Abbie
