If you haven't heard them yet, give Davies's recent solo albums, "Working Man's Café" and "Other People's Lives" a shot.

I heard that. I was surprised since I didn't realize his last name was pronounced "Davis."

It's actually closer to "Day-vizz" (as he said on NPR a year or two ago).

I'd be interested to see what happened if you extended this to 10 song writers. I was trying to think of my favorites and so far I have Tom Chapin, Tom Paxton, Lennon/McCartney....

Doesn't that mean you're obligated to do it?

My top pick is Stan Rogers. Picking just four others to round out the top 5 is too hard, so I'm not going to try.
