In reply to the discussion: Name one musician if you could only have the songs [View all]GReedDiamond
(5,310 posts)100. Good choice...I'd select Hal Blaine...
"Twenty of my favorite drummers were all Earl Palmer."
The same could be said about Hal, who has played on upwards of 6000 songs.
He also played on seven total Grammy Records of the Year, six of them consecutively: 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971 and 1976.
And, like Earl, Hal was one of the first session players to be inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame (in 2000).

Janice Joplin . . . . BUT . . . . given her relatively tiny songbook, I'd add Amy Winehouse . . . .
