who is your idea of musical GOD?

[William of Walworth]

Bumped from the dead!!

Are there any god-like musicians called Lazarus??

Pretty much missed out on this thread before, but I'll go with the Peelster. As an introduction to my list ... us blokes lurve lists like ...

Joe Strummer
David Bowie
The Iggster
Prince Buster
King Tubby
Lee Scratch Perry
Getting there with Johnny Cash, but I need to study the theological texts more closely than so far ...
Robert Plant
Horace Andy
and cannot be omitted ...
RAY DAVIES!

Obligatory bonus embarassing choice ...

Peter Gabriel.

Probably loads of others. A Hindu style pantheon of multi-gods ...

Goddesses :

Kate Bush
Bjork
PJ Harvey

(OK, obvious choices, those last 3, but they do all rule!)
