Ian Anderson is Jethro Tull and God help anyone who disagrees with him.

Peter Gabriel, I'd say.
No, that's not true. Tony Banks could never be dominated. Fripp then. Yes, I'll vote for Fripp. Or Jon Anderson? Yes, I think Anderson is the man. Peter Banks and Tony Kaye have bitten the dust with him. Or no, even better: Ritchie Blackmore. It wasn't easy for people being in one band with him. Well, I'll vote other.

I think Fripp, but Waters and Anderson are very close, can you imagine them in the same band with Emerson keyboardist?

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Vander's my favorite, but I think the "strongest personality" in the sense of egomaniacal control over the music would have to be Frankie Zappa, or possibly his wife.

Yes, I feel that I may seem ridiculous to someone, but I adore only one God and the King together - and this is Robert Fripp.

Very good question and a difficult one to answer.
I'll not vote as I don't know much about vander, or Toby Driver, but out of the others I tempted to say Fripp. He strikes me as being the very heart of KC in terms of the approach to making the music they did. I get the impression it was Fripps philosophy to making music that underpinned the bands writing.

Who's your favourite person, which is almost the exclusive author of all songs, overshadowing all the other band members and imprinting his unmistakable face to his bands or projects?
