I was racking my brains for my favourite rock or pop or jazz artist and I couldn't think of just one. So who is my favourite musician, I thought, and realised it has to be Debussy.
I see Esox has preempted me on the classical front. I think, like so many great artists, Debussy transcends the genre.

Yes, but he's no Aphex

These fkin guys.
For some strange reason, I'm obsessed with the album 'gentlemen', but listened to the album before a couple of times and didn't think it was up to much, so haven't bothered with the rest of their catalogue.

Like others, basically impossible to name my favourite band or artist, but would have said Pixies at one point. This wouldn't be my favourite song or album of theirs, but given the sad passing of Steve Albini thought it should be something from this album
This is probably my favourite pixies song. It's absolutely perfect.

Sixty years on & I still regard Paul Simon as my favourite artist & The Paul Simon Songbook as my favourite album. I could easily have picked Side of a Hill or A Most peculiar Man, but He Was My Brother just about won my internal debate!

In my top 10 too. Mel Schacher’s bass tone is off the scale . Everything I wanted my tone to be yet failed miserably

I love Grand Funk but my favourite track is "Sin's a good man's brother"
It's so hard to pick a favourite band, let alone one track by them, at least, for me it is.
I will go for "Burning the hard city" by Californian instrumental rock band Djam Karet, from the album of the same name. The band's two guitarists cram riff after riff into the disc, but the band create many and varied moods and atmospheres using synths and other electronics. The bass playing is monstrous, sinuous and rumbling yet clever and inventive and very much to the fore.
The guitarists crank out solo after solo but the solos complement the tracks and aren't gratuitous. The use of bends and vibrato is astonishing, and it isn't all fast playing, there is a lot of space between the notes at times, with great use of sustain.
The whole album is a beast and stirs up the emotions. Magnificent, in my humble opinion.
My runners up are:
It Bites - Once around the world Fates Warning - And yet it moves Ozric Tentacles - Saucers Black Sabbath - Into the void Kaki King - Final state
