Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band, plus everyone else I've ever listened to, come into contact with, or known. Even things I hate have influenced me in some way, positive or negative. Oh yeah, and Yes and Mr.Bungle.

Who has influenced you the most on your respective instrument? This could also correspond with who are your favorite musicians on a specific instrument.

For me:

  1. Alex Lifeson
  2. Adrian Belew
  3. Robert Fripp
  4. Frank Zappa
  5. Steve Hackett
