Garfunkel comes close certainly but apparently even Simon says he was a gifted producer. Plus obviously the voice.

By contrast I have no idea what David Crosby does well. He was a hanger on in the Byrds and he was a hanger on in CSN/Y.

These days I'd say Mark Kozelek, but he wasn't always

I'd say ART and GARFUNKEL are lucky.

They split up cause no one liked their shit and then bridge over troubled water got picked up by someone and he put a whole new track over it if i'm not mistaken which caused them to get famous.

Technically it's hard work+luck, luck helped them get their big break, but hard work got them to that point.

underage

Oh I thought op said lazy

Oops sound of silence. My bad.

Why under-aged? I'm 24. I think they're both extremely talented. They obviously couldn't make as good of works that they did together on their own.

Graceland was the only standout by either of them solo wise.

I would say Led Zeppelin.
I feel that their only good songs were stolen from their supporting acts and smalltime stuff they liked at the time and reworked.
Most of their own songs they wrote sucked and only their solid live performances and very lucky timing saved their asses.

This is just a sad post, you remind me of the people on rym who can't cope with bands who are the goats.

Everyone in the 60s was taking from the blues acts, everyone was influenced by the blues acts. It was not stealing. They took it to the next level and made it into something new. That was only on their first album anyway, don't know where you get your rubbish from.

He probably could have found much reduced success in some other group, anyone who can write Warmth of the Sun must have soul

>anyone who can write Warmth of the Sun must have soul
Brian thanks you

Brian did not write the lyrics to Warmth of the Sun, but using an E flat in the key of C was pretty clever

Crosby wrote some hits.

He also has a great ear for harmony

A lot of hacks really got away with it in the dadrock days

It's actually quite remarkable he's still alive with all the drugs he's taken in his lifetime.

going to prison probably saved his life

Who is the unluckiest fuck in all of music?

good answer. five leaves left is arguably a perfect album

The bassist of any successful punk or rock band

What makes Garfunkle lucky? Living in the shadow of Simon and failing at a solo career?

what about geddy lee?

But why did Art betray Garfunkel? They seemed to get along fine and made cool music.

Jackson C. Frank

McCsrtney? Lucky?

the other guy from wham

Bez of Happy Mondays

This
designated live dancer/maraca shaker/drug man/legend

Doyle Wolfgangvon Frankenstein

any hack born into money

Probably one of the kids of anyone mentioned in this thread

andy fletcher is on there somewhere, hanging around the insanely popular band and getting moneys

How did it get so high?

townes van zandt gets my vote

Why? I mean I don’t doubt it I just never heard it

Don't fuck with the formula!

>tfw Garfunkel is the better singer

What, this Bez?

Andrew Ridgeley of Wham

I would say not. He was better than their previous drummer and hes at least competent. Plus a band has to have members that gel together and all the members of the Beatles only had praise for ringo. It could be argued his friendship with john Lennon held them together through the later years. Is he lucky? Yeah I guess so but his contribution came in different forms.

The only other member of the misfits that was worth a fuck

Ringo Starr.

Bez is beyond based but yeah this is kinda true

All hard bop pianists, they are always boring as hell but appear on countless masterpieces.

Good takes
