From Roddy Doyle - The Commitments (book) "James (Brown) for the growls, Otis for the moans, Smokey for the whines and Marvin for the whole lot put together"

Based on longevity and the American recordings I went for Cash but I love Otis too, horrible choice this one. Without the American recordings it's Otis.

Great song, great scene.

I just finished The Devil All Around by Donald Ray Pollock, a really good southern gothic story similar to Cormac McCarthy.

Live from Daryl's house too, Chuck Prophet is a brilliant guitarist and singer, this version of one of his best songs is so good.

The Guardian described Solskjaer as looking like a sad old childrens toy discarded on a shelf

1. Bob Dylan 2. Bruce Springsteen 3. Van Morrison 4. Jackson Browne 5. Tom Waits 6. Marvin Gaye 7. Prince 8. Steve Earle 9. John Lennon 10. Elvis Presley

Well done Stig, I really enjoyed these polls.

It's such a brilliant documentary though, all the contributions, even the slightly bitter ones like Dave Van Ronk and Joan Baez had to acknowledge his genius. I loved the piece on the Clancy Brothers too.

The Laurel Canyon documentary on Sky Arts was great.

Lovely version of Graceland
