As for Elvis.... he wasn't a genius, just a good performer & Musician |

I was waiting for someone to say Richard D James... didn't think it would take long.
He's my #1.. or #2 not sure yet. |

| Beethoven - try composing music when you're deaf. Mozart second. |

Mozart = child Prodigy
Beethoven = genius (though he is not my favorite composer, YaleTrance made a good point about how revolutionary he was)
Maybe Jean Michel Jarre for those with more electronic leanings, not sure if he is really "genius. |

| As people have already beaten me to saying, Richard D. James is quite brilliant. A lot of his stuff just blows my mind. |

| Ok Beethoven was totally mindblowing as well, but I just picked Mozart. Richard D James is also totally whacked out to the point of near genius... |

I'm feeling Beethoven and Richard D. James both in my top 10....
how about Brian Eno or Frank Zappa? |

Richard D. James (Aphex Twin) --Boy-girl
Windowlicker
Come To Daddy
He's been doing music for over 20 years!
I once heard him say he hates most electronic equip. (808, 303 etc.)
because they don't make the noises that he wants to hear |
