Robert Johnson.

the first human that discovered by using their voice or hands they can produce music, and then put on a performance to entertain others, would probably be the most influential. Too bad we'll never know who that person is... what a crazy thought.

I read the earliest recording ever produced of a person singing was on April 9, 1860 on a device called the phonautograph invented by Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville... he would be pretty influential for music production in general.

That was the first Sonic Youth album back when Kim Gordon was in her 20s

I lol'd.

And my vote is for Buddy Holly. One of the first to write and produce his music along with playing it. He's also one of the few artists I listen to from the time that had more eclectic tracks on his albums. Take for example a chuck berry album-as much as I love him, most of the songs sound exactly alike. Buddy Holly had a real talent for writing different types of songs, rather than being a one-trick-pony.
