Nice joke, thanks. On Schwartzenegger, you're absolutely right. But to return to the discourse. These great composers weren't just composers. They were excellent instrumentalists, and improvisors. They were able to make up their music immediately, and it sounded fantastic.
But if you want my opinion on a modern all-time musician, I'd point to Paul Simon. Or Peter Gabriel. Or even David Gilmour. Then I'd proceed to mention Duke Ellington. Bill Evans. Coltrane. Hans Zimmer. Ennio Morricone. Micheal Giacchino, who wrote the soundtrack to Ratatouille, and was great. Henry Mancini with THE PINK PANTHER. And so on...I can't say there's just ONE all-time fantastic musician. There are MANY. I really don't have an all-time favourite. Bye, Crazy-Horse. And more jokes are welcome....
