Composer of everybody's dreams - brilliant, extremely productive and never demanding royalties. Just... are you sure it is "him" and not at least partially "her"?

DONOVAN---he is good isnt he. "UNIVERSAL SOLDIER" and "GREEN ROCKY ROAD". had the great pleasure if seeing him about 10yrs ago. he did all new stuff and told story about living in magical Ireland now.

Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, Hank Williams

Well, won't you lend your lungs to me?
Mine are collapsing
Plant my feet and bitterly breathe
up the time that's passing.
Breath I'll take and breath I'll give
pray the day ain't poison
stand among the ones that live
in lonely indecision.
--Townes Van Zandt, Lungs

I think Joe Strummer is bloody obvious. But if he isn´t, I would go for him.
