Sorry Neo, I have to disagree, not that I think either songwriter belong on the list, but Carole King's body of work is immense and spans the 50's, 60's, 70's AND 80's. Her music has broad appeal and has been recorded by artists over and over again. Joni Mitchell performed in a very limiting genre that will probably continue to be.

James Taylor brought this lady on stage with him at a concert in 1969. She could really belt out some tunes. I had to have her tapestry album as soon as I could get to it. Several years passed before I learned that she was the writer behind many a famous singer spanning several decades. Yes, very influential and very different in her overall contribution than Joni (my favorite) but in both cases we are looking at a phenomenon that is generation specific.

I'm thinking of adding another name to my top 20, Larry Fine. What do you think?
