1. Ray Davies (been digging the Kinks lately, Waterloo Sunset, check it out)
2. James Taylor 3. Probably Elvis Costello. I love Dylan, but (even though it's his claim to fame) I don't really consider him a good "songwriter" because his tunes don't translate well to other artists performing them (IMO, of course). Dylan is definitely the best writer of Dylan songs, though ;-)

Neil Young
Bruce Springsteen Bob Dylan Jay Farrar Jerry Joseph Bruce Hornsby Elliott Smith James Taylor Van Morrison Nick Drake Gillian Welch Patterson Hood Warren Haynes (most of his work is with Gov't Mule, Allman Bros, and the Dead, but his solo stuff is some of my favorite) Sam Beam (aka Iron & Wine) Willie Nelson Elvis Costello Although I don't normally think of Lennon & McCartney as singer/songwriters, I guess they make my list too.

Paul Simon, Jim Morrison, Lennon - Poets
Prince - redefined our expectations of music Chuck D., Zack de la Rocha - made music socially relevant again David Bowie - made music wonderfully confusing Morrisey, Leonard Cohen - made music wonderfully depressing Currently enjoy lyrically The Shins, Dashboard Confessional - and Marilyn Manson gives as good a middle finger as anyone out there today...
