His first album i found after he began to smash hit hard and i would totally rank him high and influential as a singer song writer.
I think for us a numerical ranking is largely personal and subjective but i think because we have writing songs in common we can agree on his contribution and mysical legacy. Heard a Harry Chapin song covered on The Voice and was reminded of how good he was.
What is definitely true is Couch's maxim to study the writers and music you want to write To write hits that dont sound designed to be hits i think is an amazing thing. I dont think I've studied Bruce or Billy or Tom petty, but probably absorbed so much from them just by listening. Osmosis. I'd put Warren Zevon in my top 10, sooooo underrated, a genius. We should start a thread for this, top 10, and why
