Greatest musician of the 20th century? If not greatest, then most influential? Yes? No?

I don't even like Elvis myself, but yeah I've gotta agree he is the most influential individual musician of the 20th century. Not the single greatest though, that accolade belongs to Ray Charles in my opinion.

not the greatest, since the generic term "musician" covers every genre. pretty good tho in his sphere.
i'd give john lennon the most influential rock musician award. he wrote, played and sang songs that influenced generations. V***V
