I have never heard Nick Drake. I have heard Elvis and MJ. Despite them being at the 'top' of the music pyramid(s), I liked neither in general but did like some songs in particular. As M Ted said, " . . . that is an issue of personal taste."

There are people who post to Mudcat who don't like Dylan. I can't understand that, but then I don't doubt some folks here will never understand my 'dislike' of Elvis. Ain't worth arguing over.
