But there have always been singer songwriters around just as there have always been pop artists , I don`t think there`s anything 'alternative' about that.He made albums with his own material & covers for a major label in the same way that Bob Dylan did 30 - 40 years earlier , does that make Bob Dylan 'alternative' too?

I just think if you are going to make a thread like this at least leave out the more well known people for once & actually have someone who has recorded albums for independent labels.
