Most sophisticated and intelligent musician


Let's stay with not classical musicians.
It's John McLaughlin for me.
inna
Peter Gabriel, Frank Zappa, Mark Knophler, Chet Atkins come quickly to mind for me.
Yes, Chet Atkins ranks up there!

How could I forget The Duke?

Peter Gabriel...good pick also.

I'd toss Tony Banks in there also.

That's at least 3 former Genesis members. Not too shabby....

Add Phil Collins. That's 4 ex Genesis guys!
