OK!!.... your most underrated musician;

[Soul Surfer]

In the last couple years I've definitely put Stephen Stills on my list.
Would love to hear your opinion on who you like.

Chris fucking Daughtry. Simon Cowell didn't like his voice and gave him a no-vote, but he admitted he was wrong. He should've won American Idol (no offense meant to Eliot Yamin and Katherine McPhee; they're talented, but they aren't on Daughtry's level). He should've won the season of Masked Singer he was on.

He flat-out has amazing vocal talent. He can do soft-rock, he can do hard-pop, he can hit every octave, and yet he has a charisma of his own that just...he got robbed on Idol and on Masked Singer.

Oh, and he's a fantastic guitarist as well.

 

[TK42-RAM]

Ronnie Lane from the Small Faces and then Faces.

 

[Dodgersrf]

Don Felder from the Eagles.
He’s the one that actually wrote the intro to Hotel California, but Henley always gets the credit.

Timothy B Schmidt also, was kind of forgotten, in that lineup of amazing musicians.

 

[bubbaramfan]

Frank Zappa

 

[Selassie I]

Terence Trent D'arby

I knew him back in my HS days since we went to the same school... so I'm somewhat partial I admit. I was friends with him and his younger brother. Terence is several years older than me.

He changed his name a few years back to Sananda Maitreya. He is way more well known over in Europe now.

Plus... @RamFan503 is one of his greatest fans I found out.

Yeah, Wishing Well had a great feel to it. Loved it.

I thought for sure he would have a long, giant career.

Got THAT right. I kept telling my wife how great he was. But she wouldn't listen.

 

[fearsomefour]

I have plenty, but, most are people who play in their homes or maybe a local bar on occasion. They are great but no interest in a touring life or notoriety.
I enjoy Rik Emmet a lot.
Great guitarist and vocalist. His acoustic stuff is great.
Steve Morse as well. Amazing, versatile guitarist.
Nick Cave. He is a fabulous weirdo.

 

[AvengerRam]

Matthias Jabs. Scorpions lead guitar.

Rarely seen on lists of greatest rock guitarists, but he deserves a spot.

 

[Londoner]

Les Claypool. Never heard a better bass player.

Thread title. Claypool is in many people’s top 5. Please, take a do over.

 

[Londoner]

Claypool is in many people’s top 5.

Still doesn’t get the recognition he deserves and is, therefore, underrated in my opinion.

No “do over” needed, thanks.

 

[SteezyEndo]

Todd Rundgren
David Johannsen aka Buster Poindexter

 

[RhodyRams]

under rated...hmmm..that is going to take some thought

 

[Memento]

Also, Brann Dailor, the drummer/clean vocalist from Mastodon. He's just brilliant on the drums, and his voice has incredible range. Just a hell of a musician.

Mark Mothersbaugh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Mothersbaugh

 

[IowaRam]

Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits

when ever I hear people talk about the great guitarist , you never hear Mark Knopfler mentioned
