Kurt Cobain- was an absolute idol for me years back.
Jonny Greenwood- is a genius musician apart from being an absolute badass with the guitar imo.
Nick Drake and Elliott Smith- such hugely talented musicians, died too early.

Vladimir Horowitz, Vladimir Horowitz, Vladimir Horowitz, Vladimir Horowitz, Vladimir Horowitz-I saw him 5 times. Totally overpowering. 16 year-old Andre Watts premiering with Leonard Bernstein in 1963 is right up there too!
