I prefer Johnson to Johnson.
Duane, I'm offended that I didn't make the list.
Posted by: Christin at September 24, 2003 10:00 AMthe rock is a higher ranked johnson than robert johnson?! robert johnson almost gave birth to rock and roll by himself.
Posted by: dp at September 24, 2003 01:24 PMOh, and I object to Jack Johnson's placement. It's not that I don't like him, but I don't feel he's been around long enough to rank #4.
Posted by: Christin at September 24, 2003 01:47 PMI object to Michael W. Smith being on there at all. Although it reminds me that I ought to go confess to Shannon that the 1st CD I ever bought was his "Change Your World."
Posted by: Micah at September 24, 2003 03:46 PMJames, I listed both Johnson and Johnson because they're both worthy of recognition. But I do feel that Johnson is not nearly good enough to rank as high as Johnson.
Posted by: the booth at September 24, 2003 05:21 PMBooth, you should read "The Intrusion of Jimmy" (also titled "A Gentleman of Leisure" and available on tape--by the way, how do you italicize?) by old Pelham Grenville. Jimmy Pitts is almost on par with Psmith.
