...from the past or present, for one hour, who would it be?

My short list: Vivaldi or Bach, Duane, Robert Johnson, Paul Mc, Keith, Elvis...

All told, think I'm going with Paul.

jimbo - but only if he's buying

peter gabriel seems like he'd be a nice person, warren zevon would've been fun to party with, mick would be a good conversationalist

Townshend, but 30 years ago, when he was still drinking.

the common theme so far seems to be this is conditional that sobriety is not in the mix...

Can I count Marilyn Monroe as a "musician"? She did sing.

I wouldn't need an hour though. One minute... two tops.

Jeeze....

I thought it said "OT: If You Could Hang One Musician..."


A bit strong I thought.

I was mentally compiling a list though.

Glenn Gould
or
GG Allin

Bix Beiderbecke and a bottle of speak easy hooch.

None. I prefer the impersonal distance from well-known musicians I admire, the company of whom I would never belong in anyway. I would rather enjoy what they have produced, as even an hour of social contact might change what I think of them personally, and I would rather not think of them in the personal sense....

In no particular order: Brian Jones, Keef, Syd Barrett, John Lennon, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis.

While we're on this topic, you would be the last musician I would choose to hang with.

I must say, you made my day by referring to me as a musician! Thank you.

Charlie Patton.

I'd like to say Keith Moon, but I'm not sure if I could survive that one (that's not meant as a bad joke, but given Keith's partying lifestyle, even Townshend said he couldn't always keep up with Keith).
I think stonesnow put it best. To see your favorite musician up close could be very a depressing thing.

Lady Gaga doesn't count "Rockman"....

They would probably disappoint me...I feel like I know them already...

But to hang out with and party ? George harrison was a very deep soul
I would choose him.

And one of those old concert pianist like Bach...

Freak out

Before 1963...

I would select the following:

1. Brad Mehldau
2. Richard Thompson
3. Eliza Carthy
4. Keith Richards
5. David Harrington of The Kronos Quartet
