David Bowie is a classic, never truly solo I guess but who is? My personal favorite is Daniel Rossen, he’s a part of Grizzly Bear and Department of Eagles, but his solo work is amazing. Almost forgot about Jim Croce, another classic

Jim Croce is amazing and I love him, I just want to nitpick a slight bit in that there's actually two guitars in most of his songs, with the second guitar player being Maury Muehleisen, who we also sadly lost in the plane crash that killed Jim Croce. The beauty of their songs is that the guitars blend together so effortlessly that it's hard to tell it's more than one.

I understand that, just like I said about Bowie, and even Rossen, I don’t think there’s a lot of truly solo artists. You’re right though, Maury should also be just as respected and remembered as Jim.
