I find it remarkable that he plays virtually every instrument on his albums, and not just to play them, but to compose them impresses me.

Not even a chuckle at my little joke, eh? Oh well...

My problem with Sufjan Steven is that the end result is usually not that interesting. He does have some good songs though, I'll give you that.

Oh, right. I must confess, I've used another username for the last eight years, and having just joined yesterday, haven't adjusted to this one. I'd have laughed if I wasn't so slow.

I'm actually not a big fan of Illinois, which is probably his most grandiose album. I can absolutely see how Michigan or Seven Swans could be dull, but I'm a fan of both.

Multi-talented musician and producer, Devin Townsend.

Prince. Whether you like his music or not, he is one mean guitar player (I wish he would do an outright Rock album) and can play virtually any instrument.

Bowie is much more talented than people think and even David Gilmour too can play a wide array of instruments and not just those with strings. His Sax work is very good.

If we're speaking multi-instrumentalism I think the whole of Estradasphere deserves a tad bit of credit.

My vote is for Paul McCartney. First off, he's a phenomenal bassist and guitarist (listen to the bass on I Want You (She's So Heavy) and the guitar solo on Taxman, as well as the acoustic guitar on Blackbird). I'm not sure how good of a drummer he is, but still, he can drum. He's got one of the most versatile voices in the history of music (He recorded Long Tall Sally, I'm Down, and Yesterday) on the same day, and he recorded Yesterday last!

Also, he's arguably as good as mozart with melodies
I like him to. Well, these good artist, I find their mainstream music good. The not so promoted artists, I like their not so promoted music better.
