Geezer Butler, bassist and founding member of Black Sabbath. I feel that Tony Iommi (who is a total god of course!) and Ozzy Osbourne get all the credit but Butler's contribution is overlooked. During the Ozzy era(s), it was him wrote the lyrics, and naming the band Black Sabbath was his idea, too. And, last but not least, it seems he introduced the devil sign to the metal community! (Here's a quote from Iommi's biography: "(Dio) gets credited for inventing it, but I've got a picture of Geezer from many years before doing just that.")

Tom Lehrer! This dude is a musical genius, and a literal genius! He went to Harvard at age 15 and started to produce satirical song’s back in the 50’s-60’s! Besides being an excellent piano player and singer, he is one of the best lyricists I’ve ever had the chance to hear! Barely anyone knows about him and it’s a shame… his music deserves to be heard more!
