To get your money's worth out of ten artists, I figure that you want people who have a big fat discography. That means that my list looks like this:-
Folk:-
His Bobness, the Dylan of Zimmermans
Van Morrison
Rock:-
Captain Beefheart
Phish
Can
Jazz:-
Hugh Masekela
Soft Machine
From around the world:-
The Super Rail Band
Lars Hollmer in all his incarnations
Man who can't be squeezed into a genre:-
Moondog
And supposing you had to live with somebody else's list? I'd perhaps go with Frownland's. I don't think I'd risk Janszoon's because of his ten chosen artists, I've only heard of one. His choice is definitely the most obscure so far imo.
