Kerry Minnear was amazing and I voted for him.  I'm surprised nobody voted for Phil Shulman.  He was an amazing bass player who could play other instruments, like the violin, just as well.  This is truly a hard poll and I almost couldn't vote, but I feel Kerry really led the band with his keyboard playing.

a vote for Ray... but would have gone to Kerry if he were trailing Ray.  Most talented.. who knows... supremely talented.. a vote for both.

Ray Shulman, THE BASS PLAYER, got my vote.

Easily Minnear is the most talented as far as music writing is cincerned

Ha was the one who mastered all these medieval techniques

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
