1st of all Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone at Audiogon!
I've Have been thinking about it(hundreds of choices)and lately  just wondering, If you had to pick just one, what would be your favorite band or artist of all time???
 Extremely hard decision!, but Mine would be Elton John.

Nothing like lyrics about drag strips and sea waves.

There are no such lyrics on Smile or Smiley Smile with the exception of Surf's Up which has a brief reference.  It's not a song about surfing.  This stuff is more...I don't know, avant-garde?  Not your Surfin' USA/I Get Around Beach Boys.

I know, but some lyricists advance in their years of writing. Like Brian and Jimi.
