    Default Best Singer/Songwriters?

    Singer/songwriters are becoming a lost treasure in America. But some of the best music is produced by one person whose musical intent is not filtered or changed by other people.
    My vote is for the lovely talented Paul Westerberg, who is iconic but not widely known. If you check out his fan website, you can see all the varied and sweet ways his musical fingerprints are all over American culture.


    The fan mailing list/ website for Paul's first band, The Replacements:


    Other mentions: Bob Dylan, Bob Seger, Alicia Keyes, (sisters) Ann and Nancy Wilson..........

    More suggestions?

    I don't think he wrote very many of his songs.

    I'm not the biggest singer/songwriter fan in the world--I think Paul Westerberg's best days were over by 1990. I'm more of a rock band kind of gal. But as far as songwriters go, I would have to put my money on Ray Davies of the Kinks, who wrote my favorite song, "Waterloo Sunset."
