A place to ask for music suggestions and help others discover something new.
Who are the musicians (either solo artists or bands) that you would deem great songwriters? Either of the poetic variety or just tell a gripping story in their lyrics?
I love music and writing and want to see your suggestions.
Here are some recommendations for all of you: I'm particularly a big fan of Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon, Harry Nilsson and Randy Newman, among others.
